Moro Rock Trail in Sequoia National Park offers a thrilling adventure for hikers looking to climb over 350 steps to the top of a massive granite dome. The views from the summit are breathtaking, with sweeping panoramas of the Great Western Divide and San Joaquin Valley. The trail can be a bit strenuous, but the handrails make it safe for most visitors. In the summer, free shuttles run to the trailhead, and in winter, the road closes due to snow. For those seeking a less challenging hike, nearby domes like Little Baldy and Big Baldy offer equally stunning views without the steep climb.

Pet-friendly: No, pets are not permitted.

Soft adventure: More of a medium to moderate adventure

Seasonality: Technically all seasons, but the main road often closes during the winter.

Park entry fee: $35 per vehicle
