New Yosemite Guide | Learn How Californians Play Relaxation

This is not an awkward note. If you have plans to go to other national parks, it is highly recommended to give up Yosemite because it cannot compare 😂
If you are an novice outdoor person or just want to chill and take your furry child for a walk on weekends, then the next content needs to be marked
       
Choose a campsite close to the scenic area and book it one month in advance. If it's a last-minute decision, you can find a less popular campsite

       
🏕 Recommended campsites
Upper Pines: Open all year round, flat campsite with ample space, pet friendly, close to bus stop, and excellent BGM for listening to the sound of gurgling water in the morning
Lower Pines: Open from April to October, the campsite is surrounded by mountains and streams, with free valley buses and convenient access to Curry Village and Yosemite Village
North Pines: Open from March to October, the location is excellent, close to the river for hiking, riding paddleboards, and also close to the bus stop
       
Choose a trail route based on your physical strength
If you don't go trail in the national park, it's like coming for nothing

       
🚶‍♂️ Recommended Trail Route
1. Valley Loop Trail: 11.5 miles in total and 7.2 miles in half, with low difficulty, suitable for beginners. Along the Merced River, you can see El Capitan, Yosemite Falls, Sentinel Rock along the way
       
2. Mist Trail: 1.2 miles one-way, 2.4 miles round-trip, moderate difficulty. This is the No.1 route of Yosemite, with a rainbow formed by 317 feet of Vernal Fall and 594 feet of Nevada Fall water vapor along the way, creating a stunning background for photography 🌈

       
📸 check-in point
1. Tunnel View: Overlooking the entire Yosemite Valley
2. Glacier Point: It offers a panoramic view of Half Dome and Yosemite Valley. The golden afterglow of sunset falls on the peaks and waterfalls, creating a great atmosphere
If you want to climb the Half Dome, which is the mountain with the north logo, you need to obtain a permit in advance
3. Yosemite Falls: The waterfall with the largest drop in North America, with abundant water during the spring snowmelt season and less water during other times. Experience may be discounted

       
💡 tips
1. Maintain a sense of awe 🐻 Be alert when appearing and not expose food outdoors for extended periods of time
2. Many trail routes can be difficult to follow within one's means
3. There are quite a few mountain roads to drive safely. If you are driving in China, you can drive slower without any psychological pressure. There will be no rush afterwards

I've been to about 10 national parks before... I'm really disappointed to come to Yosemite for the first time today. I've been looking forward to it for a long time, and I came here alone from New York

Can you grab it a month in advance? It feels like it's already gone six months in advance

Why don't you talk about weekends shuttle  It may not be able to squeeze in from 40 minutes
