About This Trail

Imported description
The trail leads to two Indian village sites. The trail goes from Hospital Rock to the Potwisha Campground. The path goes by the north canyon wall on a shelf. The Middle Fork Tail is pleasant to hike in the rest of the year. The trail offers a good view of the Middle Fork Kaweah River Canyon and Morro Rock. The late winter and early spring bring splashes of color from wind flowers.
