Sightseeing
Established in 1931 to preserve a stunning stand of giant sequoias, this park offers one of the easiest places to see these towering trees. Head 4 miles/6.5 km east of Arnold, in the Gold Country, to the preserve, then put on your walking shoes and follow trails to North Grove, the most visited part of this 6,498-acre/2,630-hectare park, as well as quieter South Grove. Reserve a site at one of the two large campgrounds, or pitch your tent at one of five more remote walk-in sites. Summer is the busiest time of year, but spring offers showy white dogwood blossoms, and the colorful leaves of autumn create a striking contrast with the russet sequoia trunks. Seasonal activities offered by the park include campfire talks and guided walks.

Grounds began as a coffee, pastry and sandwich shop, as one of the first places to move into the old Murphys downtown district. At that time, Murphys was still a few years from a full blown revival and we were lucky that the community took to us right away. Not long after opening, people started asking for more, so we expanded the menu. Not long after that people wanted more than just coffee to drink, so we expanded our drink menu to include a full bar. Within a year of opening, Grounds had become a local favorite serving breakfast, lunch and dinners.
