This lake is so wonderful. Empire Mountain is clearly visible from Cyclamen Lake; don't leave Cyclamen Lake without first going for a hike along the Atwell Hockett Trail. And that's not all you can do here at Cyclamen Lake. Do pay a visit to Sequoia & Kings Canyon National Park since you're here at Cyclamen Lake, and as expected, A visit to Black Rock Pass is always fun. This lake is so wonderful.
That right there is a load of amusing stuff
 
               already but it goes on, the Southern Sierra Nevada has it all. A beautiful lake like Columbine Lake in the vicinity of Cyclamen Lake is a great place to explore, and you can stay the night at Atwell Mill Campground. Cold Spring Campground is a wonderful campground nearby, and going for a hike on the Sawtooth Pass Trail is always a wonderful adventure. A good spot for whitewater paddling near Cyclamen Lake is Kern River, and you'll discover a scenic lake called Spring Lake.
Be careful coming to the Southern Sierra Nevada, you might not ever want to return home again. If you don't mind getting covered with water, you can always go whitewater paddling on Kaweah River - Middle Fork; there are glorious locations to explore along the Hockett Meadows Trail.

Moose Lake
This is a picture I took of Moose Lake on a lengthy loop hike in the Sequoias taking the Lakes trail past Heather, Astor, Emerald, and Pear Lakes; then cross country over the divide above Moose Lake where I took this photograph looking down on the lake. I then returned to the trailhead by going southwest over the divide down to the Alta Trail through Panther Gap back to the Lakes trailhead. A very long day hike. I took pictures along the entire route....

Leavis Flat - Sequoia and Kings Canyon National Park
15 miles away
Leavis Flat- I loved it! Small campground, right next to Deer Creek, only 9 sites. You can buy ice and extra necessities just up the road at the California Hot Springs (resort?) No cell phone service, ranger comes by once a day, it's very mellow. You are roughing it unless you bring an RV. No showers or flush toilets. So beautiful. We were there for Memorial Wknd. Some locals said it's usually pretty empty but the campground was full for our trip. I've heard they might shut it down. Maybe it's not bringing in enough cash for the upkeep. I bathed in the creek. My boyfriend wasn't so brave, too cold for him. If you're planning on doing the sights at the Sequoia National Park, it's a two hour drive to Morro Rock to give you an idea. The creek is so pretty and the water is drinkable, not deep enough to swim but perfect to cool off. The mosquitoes weren't too bad and with the right company, it's the perfect setting to get totally away! My boyfriend has all the pics on his phone, but I'll come back and post them....

Belknap Campground
18 miles away
...river is well over an hour's drive away. But Belknap is a beautiful campground, a rare opportunity to camp at the base of ancient redwood trees that tower 100's of feet above the campground. The main activity is hiking the Summit Trail (10 miles, round trip) to Quaking Aspen. This takes you through one of the larger of the last remaining Giant Sequoia Groves that make this area famous. The Tule River, which runs through the camp ground, is stocked with rainbow trout during the summer months, making fishing a very popular visitor activity. A quaint general store, bar and restaurant is available about 1 mile away in charming Camp Nelson. During winter months, hwy 190 is closed about 9 miles beyond Camp Nelson at Ponderosa. Winter recreationists enjoy this area for the snow mobiling, x-country skiing, and snow shoeing opportunities. Belknap is open year-round, but winter brings storms and sub-freezing conditions. The road to the campground is not always plowed. Rooms are available at the Camp Nelson Lodge (www.campnelsonlodge.com) and at nearby Pierpoint Springs Resort (www.pi...
