Snowshoeing Among Giant Sequoias — One‑Day Winter Rentals at Lodgepole.
Winter opens the door to a quieter, more magical side of Sequoia and Kings Canyon National Parks: fresh snow blankets the forest, giant sequoias stand draped in white, and snowshoeing becomes one of the most rewarding ways to move through the landscape. Lodgepole provides one‑day rentals so you can head into serene meadows or onto backcountry trails with the right gear.
Highlights
Outing Highlights
Snow‑draped Giant Sequoias
When fresh snow falls the groves fall silent: towering sequoias take on a new scale and solitude, and compact meadows become ideal terrain for a day of snowshoeing.
Simple, Sturdy Snowshoes and Poles
Rental kits include sturdy, easy‑to‑use snowshoes built for packed or fresh snow and adjustable poles to help with balance and stability on winter footing.
From Peaceful Meadow Walks to Backcountry Treks
Choose a gentle meadow walk beneath the giants or set out for a more adventurous trek into backcountry trails — Lodgepole rentals make either option straightforward for a single day.
