You can find out all of the details for the terrain and distance for each trail on the Park’s website.

Rafting—You can rent or kayak in the Merced River most of the time, but you need to check ahead for river conditions to verify if you will be able to when you plan to go. You can also rent rafts if you don’t own one. Rock Climbing—Rock climbing is extremely popular. The granite formations make it the perfect environment for climbers.

You can take a two-hour tour of the Valley, or one of the many bus tours that go to Glacier Point, Wawona & Mariposa Grove, and Tuolumne Meadows and the Valley.
