Think of this holiday to Yosemite as an opportunity to take a break from the bustle of life and reconnect with Mother Nature. With beautiful landmarks such as the Yosemite Waterfalls (known to be the tallest in North America), the Tunnel View, Glacier Point and Yosemite Valley, there is plenty to see and do. Staff members and nature experts offer tours around the park and have even created hiking trails and other activities for the public to enjoy. While many parts of the park have remained untouched from development for a millennium, visitors won't struggle for lodgings as there are plenty of excellent Yosemite hotels available.
This magnificent park continues to attract visitors from all around the world. Kenwood Travel recommends visiting during the springtime when the Yosemite waterfalls are at their peak. If you happen to be visiting during the summer, be aware that it can be a very busy period. To avoid long queues, aim to arrive at the park before 8am.
