Overview:
Ride hard and relax..
It's easy to feel small on this tour among such giants. The Giant Sequoia is one of the largest organisms on earth and a feature of this delightful tour in the Southern Sierra Nevada Mountains in California. We'll enjoy a few rides within Giant Sequoia National Monument among these living pillars of history, but we'll also explore the excellent collection of trails in the surrounding Sequoia National Forest including the infamous Cannell Plunge. This trail system is highlighted by its large losses of elevation - numerous times we'll start our rides in high pine forest and end in classic California vegetation like oak and chaparral.
Our initial and closing base camp will be alongside the Kern River in a comfortable lodge. It's a very relaxing setting to return to each day after our ride. We'll also spend two nights at the Camp Nelson Lodge in Giant Sequoia National Monument. Both locations will find you enjoying tasty dinners and campfires under the Sierras' starry skies.
