Lincoln, Giant sequoia in Giant Forest, Sequoia National Park, California, United States.

The Lincoln Tree is a giant sequoia in Giant Forest, Sequoia National Park. Its irregular base shows prominent burn scars on the north, south and west faces, with a small white burl on the northeast face. The top appears bleached, with many large branches pointing outward. Its maximum base diameter is 36.4 feet.

The tree is named after Abraham Lincoln, the sixteenth president of the United States. Its volume was measured in the 1930s by White and Pusateri, who obtained 51,000 cubic feet. Wendell Flint later recalculated it at 44,471 cubic feet in his 2002 book To Find The Biggest Tree, excluding part of the irregular base.

The tree's name honours Abraham Lincoln, the sixteenth president of the United States. It stands in Giant Forest, in Sequoia National Park, not in Grant Grove or Kings Canyon. Its burnt faces and white burl are the features visitors stop to look at.
