Yosemite transforms into a completely different world in winter. Snowfall reveals a previously hidden side of the varied terrain, and the fewest crowds mean you can take your time exploring. The park offers the opportunity to live a true sports experience in winter with the wide variety of activities of the season. Try snowshoeing, tubing or snowboarding, or enjoy the great skiing opportunities, from off-piste to cross-country. Equipment rentals and ski lessons are available in the area. Even young children can participate, enrol them in beginner ski lessons and make the trip a family experience they will never forget.

From here you can see some of the best sunrises and sunsets on the planet and therefore the West Coast of the USA. There are 2 possible views, one from the main viewpoint, from where you can see a 180-degree view of the Yosemite Valley with the Yosemite Falls and Half Dome as the main protagonists. The other view is at the Glacier Point Amphitheatre. From here you also have views of the imposing granite block Half Dome and of the Nevada Falls and Vernal Falls. All of this makes a view of Glacier Point a must. To access this watchtower located 2,200 metres south of the Valley, you have to travel about 55 kilometres from Yosemite Valley, or what is the same, between 45 minutes and 1 hour by car depending on traffic. For the more daring it can be done through the Four Mile Trail. It can be done through the Glacier Point Tour, a bus that leaves from Yosemite Valley and that allows you to make a one-way trip and then make a trek down the valley: Panorama Trail that we will see in the next point.

It is a fairly long one-way route of approximately 14 kilometres in which you visit several of the most famous waterfalls in the park: Illilouette Falls, Nevada Falls and Vernal Falls. In addition, giving rise to its name of Panorama trail, there are wonderful views of both Yosemite Valley and Half Dome in much of the route making with all this a very complete route and well-travelled in part of the route. The route can be done both up and down. As the drop is almost 1000 meters, it is advisable to go downhill for most mortals, that is, from Glacier Point to Yosemite Valley. It can be done by hiring the Glacier Point bus. Although it is a fairly long route, it is recommended for most people. It can be done with children, so they are also welcome.

There are several easy-to-visit points of interest in Yosemite Valley. One of the essentials is the route to see the Lower Yosemite Fall waterfall up close. It is a very simple circular route suitable for all audiences. It consists of 1.5 km and has hardly any unevenness. In the middle of the route you arrive at the base of the waterfall. To get to the Trailhead or start of the route, you can use the park's free bus system called Shuttles. There is a multitude of stops throughout the Valley and they pass every few minutes.

This is another 1.5 kilometre loop trail with no elevation gain and begins at the Yosemite Valley Visitor Centre in the heart of the Valley. During the route through the beautiful prairie, there are impressive views of the highest waterfall in North America: Yosemite Falls with a drop of 739 metres. The iconic Half Dome granite block is also displayed, which if you are lucky enough to visit the area with the meadows flooded by the Merced River, you can see the lagoons that are formed in there.

It is usually quite crowded for this reason. From this vantage point, you have views of Yosemite Valley with El Capitan on the left, Bridalveil Falls on the right and the mighty Half Dome in the background. It is located on State Route 41 (or Wawona Road), the access road to the National Park from the south, just off a tunnel. There are 2 not very large car parks, one on each side of the road and a lane enabled as a somewhat more extensive car park.

Each area of Yosemite has its own charm, with the town of Yosemite Valley Village not being an exception. Here you will find most of the Park's services: campsites, shops, restaurants, and the possibility of activities such as rafting and, of course, the Park's Interpretation Center. The buildings are perfectly integrated into nature and all this makes it very pleasant to take a walk through Yosemite Valley Village. Yes, it is true that depending on the time of day, there will be quite crowded areas, but it is still a joy to visit the town.

California State Route 120 (SR 120 - California State Route 120) is the access road (or exit) from Yosemite National Park to the West. It is a high mountain road where you reach 3031 m of the famous Tioga Pass. It's a scenic road that passes several points of interest, including the beautiful grasslands of Tuolumne Meadows. One place of interest to mention is Olmsted Point. It is a viewpoint that is located on the same side of the road (there is a small parking lot) about 1 hour from Yosemite Valley. From here you have a different angle view of the Half Dome. The most impressive thing about this place is the granitic landscape sculpted over millions of years by glaciers. If you walk around a bit you will see large granite blocks, some of them almost in balance that it seems that you will be able to move and throw them.
