An absolutely amazing national park. You must read up on the geology before visiting. You'll be shocked to learn that pinnacles is a volcano that erupted almost 200 miles to the south.
The trails are shocking and amazing, but, oh my gosh, I've done the high peaks trail twice in 100° weather, and it's borderline death defying.

This National Park is only about 10 years old (though it was a National Monument prior) so it's not going to be as organized and "fancy" as some of the bigger, older ones. However, it still has many cool points of interest that you probably can't see anywhere else such as the Reservoir and Bear Gulch caves. If you live somewhat close, this can be a nice day trip. If not, you can easily spend 1.5 to 2 days there at a campsite or nearby motel. I camped for 2 days and easily accessed the different hikes with my car each morning. The campsites are basic and a little too close together for my liking. Things stayed loud until 2:30am one night.

We hiked here in late July in the morning. I was worried about the heat advisory, so we were there at sun up and went to the east side of the park. This side is so beautiful at sunrise! We hiked the Bear lower Gulch cave, trail up to the reservoir, and loved the trail so much. We even saw a condor! We were the only ones on the trail there and back.

Intriguing place, well protected and presented. It’s an alien landscape where desert meets the sea. Visitor Centre tells the story and good to see recognition of the Indigenous history too.

We love the spring time at the Pinnacles. Love the hikes and the flowers and birds. This last year had amazing wildflowers.

One of our newest national parks - we'd heard it gets pretty toasty in the summer, so we stopped by in December during a holiday road trip. Unfortunately the sun of course sets around 5:30 or so in December so we caught the last few hours of daylight. Looking forward to trying the East Entrance sometime, which apparently has "more to do" and the campground and more activity.
The west entrance is pretty remote off of Highway 101 - the visitor center was closed in the late afternoon - perhaps because it was near Christmas. Still, unique scenery for mid-California.

We would rank this more as a state park, and a national park. We have traveled to many national parks, and this did not impress us. There is no through road from the west to the east so you must go in one entrance and then drive around the whole park to get to the other side. Lots of hiking. The main caves were closed at the time we came so make sure if you were going to go in the spring or fall. They do not allow visitors when there are baby bats because they can fall from the cave ceiling and die. We were able to do one cave though. That was exciting to see. Be careful of temperatures as well because it can get very hot in the summertime. Not a whole lot around there. Soledad is the closest city.

A newer National Park, Pinnacles to my thinking is more National Monument worthy - not full out NP. But that is what Congress decided, so we went. Number 45 of 63 National Parks. Again take it for what it is, and spend 1/2 a day. Nice hikes. Pretty rocks but no knock-your-socks-off sites here.

•Visited PNP in one afternoon on our way to the Pacific Coast. We entered from the East; they are in the midst of building a permanent park sign but there is another (vertical) sign past the park store.
•The attendant in the park store was very friendly and helpful; the store had the items we usually buy. You can also obtain a passport stamp in the park store. There’s a cold water spout outside the park store. There is an adjacent camp store as the campground is nearby. We did not stay overnight.
We hiked the Moses Spring trail to the Bear Gulch trail which takes you into talus caves and to the reservoir. We brought snacks and rested by the water. The caves weren’t too tight for my 6’3” husband. After selfies, we completed the loop by hiking the Rim trail back to the parking lot; be careful you don’t take the High Peaks trail if that’s not your destination.
We hiked ~1.5 hours, ~2 miles & ~444ft elevation gain. I think we saw a condor overhead. We did not visit the west side nor see any rock climbers.
I kept seeing signs displaying numbers but I couldn’t find any tour in the NPS app. Also, the app said the park store was closed but the website appeared to be updated, and the store was, indeed, open.
Pro tip: hike in the morning!

Pinnacles is a nice park to visit, especially if you are a hiker, but the campground itself is a mixed bag. since it was my first visit, I read up on the rules and the possible wildlife I wouls see, but I guess I was the only one. Granted, it was a three-day weekend, but no one seemed to observe the rules, or have consideration for their neighbors. We rented a tent cabin, but had the neighbors from hell. There were multiple couples, at least twelve adults and maybe ten kids...all under five. The adults stayed up until at last 11:00 and the kids did too! Apparently they had no rules and I would almost label them as feral. On the plus side, nice camp store, and a pool. Down side, there are only two showers for each gender for the whole park. And there was never a ranger to see if rules were being followed. We saw people breaking branches off of trees to burn. Packs of kids chasing and trying to catch animals. No one tried to reduce the light pollution, as told in the brochures to allow for star-gazing. I wanted to let my grandchildren experience other parks, but not sure I want them to think this is how they should behave.

Hi, I am going to be at Pinnacles the 3rd week of May 2021 I am getting very confused about where to stay, Soledad or Paicines I have found lodging in both places. I will be there 2 days. I want to do some hiking trails 3 - 7 miles. The thing is I have a fear of heights, not altitude but open trails that have steep drop offs and cliff edges. So the question is which side might offer me more hiking options considering my restrictions? Thank you

We are coming from Soledad tomorrow, oct 25. Which trail is easiest, but can still see some pinnacles? Can you see much if you drive all around the park from west entrance to east entrance?

Pinnacles during Thanksgiving? Snow? Road conditions?
2 adults, 4 kids, staying in a hotel nearby.
We wanted to go to Lassen, but reading on TripAdvisor forum that it is iffy in November.

Road won't be bad, but it maybe cold and wet! Make sure the trails are open before you go!
Recommend Death Valley instead.
Lassen in July or August.

Hi there,
My sons and I are going to the park next monday (through the Soledad side) and wondering what would be the best hikes/trials for myself and my sons(7 and 14) to do for 3 or so hours. They need to be easy to medium hikes as they are not super advanced hikers. We have been to the eastern entrance but, are trying this side on our way to Sequoia/Kings Canyon.
Thanks in advance!

I'm going to Pinnacles National Park to hike the High Peaks Trail with a friend. Couple questions:
1. What's the closest parking from the East entrance (Hollister)? Visitor Center? Or can you park in the campground area that's closer?
2. Has it been super hot during the day? Temperatures?

We visited via the East entrance. There is closer parking near the campground area, but it was fairly limited (12 or so parking spots). We arrived in the later afternoon and there were several available, but I don't know about other times of day or year (we visited in February). I guess be aware that there is closer parking, but it may or may not be available.
Hi there! We are entering from the West Entrance and plan to do a loop of Juniper Canyon, Tunnel, Condor Gulch, and High Peaks. Is it easier (on the knees) to do this clockwise or counterclockwise? I read reviews of doing this counterclockwise if you enter from the East Entrance so you can get the steep portion of Condor Gulch over with while you still have the energy. Not sure what the best direction is if you're coming from the West. Appreciate any suggestions!

We came in from the east side and went counter clockwise up to the resevoir, then on to the pinnacles. As I recall, not that bad in that direction; I think the hardest part is climbing in and around the rocks of the pinnacles and holding on to chain fences. Not steep but requires some dexterity.

Hi Caitlin, we are wondering where you did your day trip from, as we will be on a road trip on the Pacific Coast Highway and wondered if it is doable for a day trip from Monterey? Thanks

Hello! We came from Palo Alto area, but just mapped it from Monterrey and looked like it was about an hour-ish drive so totally doable! And there are so many hiking routes so you can spend as much or as little time as you want.

Which hiking trails give the best chance to see California Condors? Are they, easy/moderate/strenuous?
Steve5863
Avon, Ohio13,020 مساهمة
The High Peaks and Condor Gulch trails provide the best opportunity to see condors but are both rated strenuous.
However, the first one mile (1.6k) of the Condor Gulch trail to the overlook provided excellent opportunities to see condors, especially in the morning before the are soaring too high, and this section is rated only moderate and is "do-able" by most if taken easy..
We hiked this first section of the Condor Gulch trail (trailhead located at Bear Gulch) in the mid to late morning during our spring visit and saw several condors as well as eagles, falcons and turkey vultures.
