Overview of Yosemite Family Multisport: Hiking & Biking in the Sierra

You probably know the names. The Sierra Nevada. Half Dome. El Capitan. Bridalveil Fall. And maybe you've seen the photographs or had an Ansel Adams poster hanging in your college dorm. That's Yosemite. Everybody's heard the names but who's really explored them? Who has stood in awe of Bridalveil Fall? Watched pro climbers take on El Capitan? Hiked and ridden horses through Yosemite? Because the thing is, if you're going to hang pictures of Yosemite on your walls, wouldn't it be great if they had your family in them? Well, here's your chance.

  • Glorious hikes to thundering waterfalls, alpine meadows and spectacular panoramas
  • Glean hidden secrets of Yosemite Valley from a local naturalist
  • Walk amid the Mariposa Grove of Giant Sequoias, Yosemite's largest stand of giant sequoias
  • Kid-friendly rock-climbing class in Tuolumne Meadows
  • Ahwahnee Hotel, the best way to stay in the valley
