About This Museum: If you have never been to Sequoia National Park this is a great place to begin your visit. The Giant Forest Museum is centrally located in the Giant Forest grove of Sequoia National Park and is right beside the main highway that leads through the park.
Basic Information: The museum contains a wealth of information about the park's giant Sequoia trees, some of which can be viewed from just outside the museum. Though the museum is not very large there are enough interesting things for both adults and children to enjoy and learn from. The museum is also a good starting point for visiting the area.
The parking lot is located on the opposite side across the road from the museum. There are restrooms located in a separate building near the museum. Inside the museum building is a small gift shop and also a desk where you can get basic information about the park, brochures, maps, etc. For more detailed information you may want to stop at the visitor center which is about 4 miles north of the museum in Lodgepole Village.
