Lone Pine

Lone Pine straddles the transition between the Sierra Nevada’s eastern foothills and Owens Valley in eastern California, a setting that has made it a practical base for travel into high mountain country. Mount Whitney, the highest summit in the contiguous United States, rises west of town, while the long, dry valley opens toward the Inyo Mountains. The nearby Alabama Hills National Scenic Area is known for rounded granite outcrops and for decades of film production, particularly Westerns. Lone Pine also sits on U.S. Route 395, the principal north–south road through this side of California.
