Things to Do in Three Rivers

Three Rivers is great to visit if you want to explore among amazing nature. Sequoia and Kinds Canyon National Parks are the most popular points of interests, because the gigantic sequoia trees are world-class attractions. The park offers not only huge trees which make anyone feel tiny, but lots of hiking and trekking options as well. The area is a popular choice in both summer and winter because the snowy trails are still excellent for hiking. The wildlife is very active here and you can easily spot lots of birds -- there are designated bird watching tours if you are interested -- along with boars, turkeys, deer and more.

If you are feeling active and can climb hundreds of steps, visit Buck Rock Lookout. Once you are on the top and have a 360-view of the area, you will forget about the strenuous way up. Moreover, on the other side of Three Rivers you can find Lake Kaweah. The lake is full of great activities and if you want to spend time directly on the lake go down to Lake Kaweah Marina. On the water, visitors can swim, snorkel, paddle board, jet ski, kayak, and fish -- the options are endless. There are lots of boat tours offered in the area, where small boats take visitors around the lake, discussing the history of the lush green trees on one side and the deserted dry hills on the other. It's fascinating to see how diverse the flora and the fauna can be around the same body of water.
