I got some vague directions from a reference I found online, but I went this weekend and actually found it. Here are some directions:
Driving north from Three Rivers on 198, you enter Sequoia National Park. Within about a mile from the entrance, there's a short turnout on the right with room for about 5 cars. That's where the trail is. (I believe there's a small turnout on the other side of the road as well.) If you can't park there, just beyond that is the Foothills Visitor Center with more parking. The swimming area is a short, but somewhat steep hike down to the river. The gorge pictured here is a hundred feet or so up the river. Some scrambling up a few rocks is necessary to get there. There are great jumping spots from both sides.
I acquired a few hazy instructions from the research I discovered on the internet, however We proceeded to go this particular weekend break and also discovered this. Here are a few instructions:
Generating northern through 3 Streams upon 198, a person key in Sequoia Nationwide Recreation area. Inside in regards to a kilometer in the entry, there is a brief turnout about the correct along with space for around 5 vehicles. That is in which the path is actually. (In my opinion there is a little turnout on the other hand from the street too. )#) If you cannot recreation area presently there, simply past that's the Foothills Customer Middle with increased car parking. The actual floating around region is really a brief, however fairly large backpack right down to the actual water. The actual stuff pictured this is a 100 ft approximately in the water. A few rushing upward several rubble is essential to obtain presently there. You will find excellent leaping places through each attributes. Live Tv Online
