Our 5-Day Yosemite Adventure (July-August 2023)

There are so many wonderful things to do and see in Yosemite National Park! It can be a bit stressful trying to narrow it down to the top places you want to see. A lot of people prefer to hang out around Yosemite Valley because it’s easy to drive around, lots of family-friendly hiking trails, and lodging/restaurant options. My husband and I have already experienced enough of Yosemite Valley, so we wanted to venture out to other parts of Yosemite, such as to Glacier Point, Hetch Hetchy, Mariposa Grove, Wawona area, and along Tioga Road. We went on an amazing 5-day Yosemite adventure!

Wapama Falls: Beautiful Hike in Hetch Hetchy

Hike to one of the most beautiful waterfalls in Yosemite National Park. Located within Hetch Hetchy area, Wapama Falls crashes down from granite cliffs and under (or over) footbridges. This waterfall hike is unique because you can get really close to the base of the waterfall (while staying on the footbridges). Not only is this waterfall amazing, but the views along the entirety of the hike are spectacular!
