Day Trip Details

After picking you up from your selected meeting point, we will depart the city for a day trip to Yosemite National Park.

The drive lasts approximately 4 hours, crossing the Sierra Nevada Mountains and passing through historical western towns and gold rush towns. We will discuss John Muir's influence on wilderness preservation.

Upon arrival, we'll stop at the Tunnel View overlook for views of Half Dome, Cathedral Peak, and Bridalveil Falls.

Next, you will have free time for lunch and exploration at Yosemite Valley Lodge. Recommended activities include walking to Yosemite Falls, visiting Cook's Meadow, or relaxing along the Merced River.

Following this, we will drive past El Capitan Meadow and stop at the Valley View overlook for views of the Merced River and Cathedral Rocks.

Our final stop will be the Giant Sequoia Grove (Tuolumne Grove), home to the Grizzly Giant Sequoia, one of the largest on Earth. Its base measures nearly 30 meters (98 feet) in circumference.
