Sequoia Dog Policy

This park protects the Giant Forest, which boasts some of the world's largest trees, the General Sherman being the largest measured tree in the park. Other features include over 240 caves, a long segment of the Sierra Nevada including the tallest mountain in the contiguous United States, and Moro Rock, a large granite dome.^[1]

Sequoia National Park is somewhat dog friendly. Dogs can go with you in the car, any of the campgrounds, and on paved roads, but they aren't allowed on any roads. Dogs can't be left unattended at any time.
