Guidebook for Kernville
Drinks & Nightlife
Kern River Brewing Company is a long time fixture in Kernville. Their beers consistently win awards. Visit "The Pub" (which faces the grocery store on Sierra Way) for classic pub fare, or check out the newer "Backyard" (which faces Sierra Dr, you can see it from the apartment) for a more foodie driven menu. The Pub has great live music on Friday nights. Check ahead if you want to visit the Backyard, as their open hours are seasonal (typically Fri-Sun).

Get here early if you want to sit inside because this restaurant is tiny. The portions however, are very generous. The outside seating can accommodate larger groups.

Parks & Nature
This trail is out of the way, but it is an amazing experience. The giant sequoias on the trail are some of the largest in the entire world. The trail itself is paved and handicap accessible.
Be prepared for a trek though, it takes roughly an hour to drive to the trailhead from Kernville. Fill up on gas before you leave Kernville, there aren't any gas stations once you leave town.
This trail is only open during the summer months.

An easy to get to hiking trail from Kernville. The trail is somewhat rocky in parts, but relatively easy. There is a stream crossing a mile or so in that requires a little bit of balance. The trailhead is at the end of Burlando Rd and has a decent amount of parking available

This hike is amazing in the spring, especially when the wildflowers are in bloom. Be ready for a lot of uphill. This is also the bottom of the spectacular "Cannell Plunge" mountain bike trail, so keep an eye out for mountain bikes coming down the hill. Take the trail all the way up to Powers Peak for amazing views of the Kern River Valley.

This park has something for everyone. There are walking paths, grass and picnic tables, basketball courts, playground, a beach, as well as rocks that you can sit on and watch people float down the river. The section of the river passing through the park is actually a man-made whitewater park, designed for slalom kayaking! Please do not enter the water without a lifejacket.
