This summer my parents and I did a road trip through the beautiful sunny state California, USA visiting San Francisco, Yosemite National park, Las Vegas, Los Angeles, Santa Barbara, Monterey and Santa Cruz. We had the most amazing, memorable time and took so many incredibly pictures, that it would be a shame not to share them on this blog.
In today’s post I want to focus on my favourite destination on this trip, which unexpectedly was Yosemite National park. I obviously knew from pictures and reviews that Yosemite National park would be awesome, but my expectations as well as my parents’, were by far exceeded and it’s save to say, that Yosemite National park is until this point the most wonderful place I have been to. As the lovely, elderly couple we stayed with at Yosemite NP pointed out, many people don’t appreciate and realise what variety of activities Yosemite National Park has to offer and therefore only stay 1-2 nights. We decided to stay 4 nights in Yosemite National Park and we still only slightly touched the surface of what this beautiful place has to offer - we visited Glacier Point, took a hike from Sentinel Dome to Taft Point, looked at the Giant Sequoias and walked up to the Vernal Falls.
You should take into consideration, that travelling to and from Yosemite National Park (if you don’t stay inside the park in Yosemite Village) takes up a lot of time. Furthermore, especially when visiting Yosemite in summer, you won’t be able to do lots of activities on one day, because the heat, the hiking and the drives are very exhausting, especially if you are not used to it. From my own personal experience, I would recommend focussing on only one activity a day and really taking time to appreciate and enjoy. Now, I want to share with you, why it is worth to explore this gorgeous, unique spot for a longer period of, by showcasing the reasons to visit Yosemite national park and why you should go to Yosemite national park too.
