Lodgepole is perched on the banks of the scenic and lengthy Marble Fork of the Kaweah River, at an elevation of 6,700 ft. The inspiring Giant Forest Grove and the mighty General Sherman Tree - the world's largest tree in volume - are just two miles from the campground. Forty miles of trails , including the paved Big Trees Trail , invite visitors to immerse themselves in the majesty of the ancient grove.
