Sightseeing

The Yosemite Mountain Sugar Pine Railroad is a fun-filled excursion for the entire family, located only 10 minutes from the southern entrance of Yosemite National Park off of Highway 41. The historic railroad offers train rides, gold panning, an on-site rail museum, and a fun gifts & collectibles store. Open April through October. Do not miss the Saturday evening steam train ride, with a great bbq dinner and a sing-along around a campfire at the stop halfway through the ride. The steak and fixins dinner was surprisingly good, served with smiles and while listening to some live country music. Great, interactive fun for the entire family. Get there early to walk around. A bargain!

Lewis Creek Trail is a 5.5 mile moderate round trip hike located near Oakhurst, CA. The trail contains two waterfalls: Corlieu Falls and Red Rock Falls. The creek runs right along the trail. In my opinion, it is a moderate hike with 1100 ft of elevation gain throughout the hike.

If you thought Yosemite Valley was the only part of the park with waterfalls – think again! There are many wonderful waterfalls beyond the Valley floor and Chilnualna Falls (pronounced chill-na-wall-na) is one of the most beautiful. It is also not so easy to get to and requires a strenuous hike that is about 8.2 miles (13 km) roundtrip with a 2,400 foot elevation gain. The Chilnualna Falls Trail is in the southern Wawona section of the park, and offers a multi-cascading waterfall, swimming holes, views of Wawona Dome, and beautiful trails. If you’ve done the big name hikes already or are just looking for something a little more peaceful, the Chilnualna Falls Trail is the move. Chilnualna Falls consists of a 50-foot (15-meter) fall (pictured above), followed by a series of pools and a 100-foot cascade, followed by a 240-foot (70-meter) capper of a cataract.

There are so many amazing landmarks and hikes within Yosemite National Park, but something about Sentinel Dome and Taft Point is just so special. If you're looking to access a more remote side of the park, take a trip out to Glacier Point and visit Sentinel Dome and Taft Point. Although this part of the park is way more remote, it's still busy.

This hike is all about the destination, from which you'll have striking views in every direction, including, perhaps most gripping of all, straight down. Turn a complete circle and you'll be able to see any number of Yosemite landmarks, including Tenaya Lake, Half Dome, Mt. Hoffman, Sentinel Dome, North Dome, and bits of Cathedral Rocks and El Capitan, plus Merced Lake and dozens of peaks you probably won't be able to name. Clouds Rest Trail via Tenaya Lake is a 13 mile heavily trafficked out and back trail located near Yosemite Valley, California that features beautiful wild flowers and is rated as difficult. The trail is primarily used for hiking, camping, and backpacking and is best used from March until October.

Are you looking for a dayhike in the Sierra Nevada with few people, easy access, easy to moderate difficulty and views that rival anywhere in the USA? Then the 20 Lakes Basin Loop is the hike for you! The trailhead is at Saddlebag Lake, located at the end of a well-maintained gravel road several miles off Tioga Road just east of the East Entrance to Yosemite NP. The hike is easy to moderate, depending on one's fitness level, but the views along the trail are incredible almost the entire way. 20 Lakes Basin, hiking trail near Lee Vining, Mammoth Lake and Yosemite National Park, California. The loop around the 20 Lakes Basin travels through breathtaking alpine scenery, visiting nine stunning lakes surrounded by dramatic peaks and ridges. The glorious scenery and relative ease of the trail make this a very popular hike.

You’ll find an excellent view of Vernal Fall from the footbridge at 0.75 miles (1.3 km). Beyond the bridge, at 0.2 miles, the Mist Trail and the John Muir Trail diverge. You can also take the John Muir Trail to the top of Vernal Fall (via the Clark Point cutoff) and the top of Nevada Fall, or combine the Mist Trail and John Muir Trail into a loop. To proceed directly to the top of Vernal Fall, follow the Mist Trail 0.5 mile (0.8 km) up a steep granite stairway of over 600 steps. Prepare for slippery footing and a tremendous amount of waterfall spray in spring and early summer. Trail is usually accessible throughout the autumn season. Vernal Fall Mist Trail is closed in winter, but access is available via the John Muir Trail, which may be snowy. Hikers can reach the top of Nevada Fall by continuing 1.3 miles (2.1 km) along the Mist Trail (from Vernal Fall). The John Muir Trail also leads to the top of Nevada Fall (bypassing Vernal Fall). The portion of the John Muir Trail between Clark Point and the top of Nevada Fall is closed in winter.
