About this place
This beautiful and quiet grove in the Ancient Bristlecone Pine Forest includes the world's largest bristlecone pine, the Patriarch Tree.

The final 13 miles of this road are unpaved. A speed limit of 15 mph is suggested to avoid flat tires punctured by the sharp rocks on this road.
