I’m going to say it. I know it’s bold but I have to: Sequoia National Park is the most beautiful place on planet Earth. Well, maybe that’s a little too bold, but I’m sure it ranks up there with the best of them. From Bakersfield, a trip to Sequoia National Park will take roughly two hours. We actually made a complete trip from Bakersfield to the top lookout point, 6,500 feet above sea level, and back on one tank of gas using an SUV.
