🌲🐾 Visiting the General Sherman Tree - The World’s Largest Tree by Volume

I visited the General Sherman Tree in Sequoia National Park — the largest tree on Earth by volume and one of the world’s most iconic natural wonders. Standing an incredible 275 feet tall with a 36-foot diameter, this ancient giant sequoia is estimated to be over 2,000 years old. Being in its presence is absolutely awe-inspiring. 🌲✨

The walk down to the tree is beautiful in itself, passing through the towering sequoia grove, interpretive signs, and forest views that help set the scene for meeting this legendary giant. Up close, the sheer size of the trunk, the texture of its bark, and its age-old presence make it one of the most unforgettable sights in any national park.
