Nature, Art, and History -
Take advantage of the hikes along Tioga Road which is only open during the summer. Hikes here lead to alpine lakes and views of the Yosemite Valley below.
The magnificent views may inspire the artist in you. The Happy Isles Nature Center offers a variety of art classes so you can capture the beauty.
A national park for over a century, Yosemite has a lot of stories to tell. Stop by the Yosemite History Center to learn about the contributions the Chinese workers made that lead to the development of Yosemite National Park.
