About Travel & Places

Carved by ancient glaciers over millions of years, Yosemite Valley stretches about seven miles through the heart of the Sierra Nevada, its sheer granite walls rising nearly a mile above the meadow floor. The Merced River winds quietly through the valley, reflecting the silhouette of Half Dome in its still water on calm mornings. John Muir called it "the grandest of all the special temples of Nature," and those who stand at Valley View for the first time tend to agree without a word.
