The Great Western Divide is a Sierra Nevada mountain range that forms part of the border between the Kings Canyon and Sequoia National Parks. Some of the summits of the Great Western Divide reach well over 13,000 feet (3,962 m). The High Sierra Trail crosses the range at Kaweah Gap from Sequoia National Park.
The divide separates the watersheds of the Kaweah, Kern and Kings rivers. The divide includes the Kings–Kern Divide and the Kaweah Peaks Ridge.
