Yosemite National Park, nestled in California’s Sierra Nevada mountains, is renowned for its iconic granite cliffs, ancient sequoias, and breathtaking waterfalls. Spanning over 1,100 square miles, the park’s highlights include El Capitan and Half Dome, towering rock formations that draw climbers and adventurers from around the world, and Yosemite Valley, a picturesque hub with landmarks like Bridalveil Fall and the majestic Yosemite Falls. Beyond the valley, the park offers vast wilderness areas with alpine lakes, meadows, and trails that range from easy strolls to challenging backcountry treks. A UNESCO World Heritage Site, Yosemite is celebrated for its natural beauty, rich biodiversity, and legacy of conservation as the inspiration for the national park movement.
