# Yosemite — Places to See
|
|
|
|
## Valley
|
|
|
|
- **Tunnel View** — classic panoramic first look into the valley
|
|
- **Bridalveil Fall** — 5-min walk from the car, right near Tunnel View
|
|
- **Valley View** — Merced River framing of the valley
|
|
- **El Capitan** — view from the meadow below. *Note: Horsetail Fall firefall effect only happens in February; waterfall likely dry in September*
|
|
- **Cook's Meadow Loop** — flat 1-mile walk, Half Dome framed over open meadow, great for golden hour photography
|
|
- **Mirror Lake** — Half Dome reflection, early fall colour; water level typically low in late September
|
|
- **Lower Yosemite Falls trail** — easy 1-mile paved loop, ~20-30 min, gets you right to the base
|
|
|
|
## Above the Valley
|
|
|
|
- **Glacier Point** — best morning light on Half Dome, spectacular panoramic views
|
|
|
|
## South (near Wawona)
|
|
|
|
- **Mariposa Grove** — largest giant sequoia grove in Yosemite, 10 min from the cabin
