Great trip for adventuresome people who have some conditioning and can spend 10 to 12 hours hiking swimming and rappelling. This is a physically demanding trip. Only those who run, hike a lot and or are physically active on a regular basis should consider this trip.

This trip does have the most elevation change of all our trips. So not only is it tough, but the views at times are some of the best in Kings Canyon...

Tough, you bet
But so worth it.

Reservation only at this time.

Trips meet at the Boyden Cavern parking lot at 7:00 am. Participant will have an oppertunity to talk with and discuss last minute details, gather up gear and pack food for this trip. A hot lunch is included, however we strongly suggest packing lot's of extra snacks to keep you going. Depending on the time of year you will want to consider brining a wet suit!!!! Call us, we may have wet suits for you.     

This trip has it all and is intended to be our more advance trip. Although prior experience is not necessary for any of our trips, this trip will be challenging, wet, cold and exciting. See our bring list page for things to pack and bring for this trip. Kings Gold is for ages 13 year and older.

Expect up to 8 rappels with some ending in flowing pools of water, water slides, wading and lot's of hiking.
