Add to My List Check Off

Big Trees Trail circles Round Meadow in a 0.7 mile loop. It is flat, paved, and has benches along the way. Informational displays offer insight into what you are experiencing. Watch for yellow-bellied marmots, bears, and other wildlife. After taking this trail, consider walking the Hazelwood Meadow Trail on the other side of the road; it leads through another part of the sequoia grove. In summer, you can park here if you have an accessible-parking placard; if not, walk here from Giant Forest Museum. A vault toilet and drinking fountain are available in summer. In winter, this small parking lot may be open to all cars, but the drinking fountain and restroom are closed. The closest public telephones are at Lodgepole. Parking is available at the trailhead for people with disability placards. If you don't have a placard but need to park closer to the trailhead, temporary placards are available at visitor centers.In winter when roads are snowy, the trailhead parking area is open to all.
