Sights in Visalia

  1. Kaweah Oak Reserve

    About 7 miles east of Visalia is Kaweah Oak Reserve, home to 324 acres of valley oak trees, which once stretched from the Sierra to (long-gone) Tulare Lake in the valley. Nice for a short hike, it's also a rare glimpse into the valley's past before the orchards and vineyards took over. From Hwy 198, turn north onto Road 182; the park is about a half-mile along on your left.

  2. Mearle's Drive-In

    The Taj Mahal of classic drive-ins, Mearle's neon sign is flat out lovely to behold at sunset. Cheeseburgers, fries, shakes and other grease-pit fare are what you'll get here.
