Camping près du parc national Sequoia Kings Canyon #1

Camp ikigai is a 72-acre nonprofit animal sanctuary and agritourism retreat in Yokuts Valley, California, offering a rare blend of nature, purpose, and peaceful escape. Located near Sequoia and Kings Canyon National Parks, the property provides a range of accommodations including glamping tents, tiny cabins, and traditional camping options.

Guests stay immersed in a living sanctuary environment alongside rescued animals such as horses and sheep, with opportunities to experience authentic land stewardship, quiet reflection, and wide-open space. The terrain features rolling hills, scenic trails, and direct access to adjacent public lands, creating a setting that feels remote while still accessible.

Camp ikigai is designed for those seeking more than a place to sleep. It is a place to disconnect from noise, reconnect with nature, and experience a slower, more intentional pace. Shared amenities include a communal kitchen, firepit gathering area, outdoor hot/cold showers, and simple, grounded infrastructure that supports an off-grid lifestyle.

With over 13,000 visitors hosted as of Spring 2026 , the sanctuary continues to evolve as both a destination and a mission-driven space focused on healing, sustainability, and meaningful connection.
