Mount Whitney is a great hiking destination that is found in both Sequoia and Kings Canyon National Parks. It is the most frequently hiked mountain peak in the famous Sierra Nevada mountain range.

Climbing this mountain requires high levels of fitness. Altitude condition is also crucial during hiking. All individuals who are want to have this one in a lifetime experience need to set out before sunrise for them to complete the whole circuit in a day.
