One of the must-see, classic Yosemite views. Can get very busy, especially midday, and the parking is limited. Very impressive throughout the day but particularly when sun rising or setting. There ar… Full review by aberdeenangler

The views were great-took an abundance of pics-we all enjoyed. Just need some better info at the entrance booth, good thing I knew mostly what to do before we went. Full review by GMSELEC

You can't really miss this one as you enter the park from the south. Just a quick stop for photos. Parking is small but people stop and go so just have patience if busy. Photos will probably be bette… Full review by Mouzouris
We have decided to rent bikes inside the park on June 10 since the shuttles aren’t running. Which bike path is the best to see most views and best path to park the bikes and hike a bit? 3 adults with a 16 and a 10 year old. It’s a bit overwhelming without shuttles to know where to park and walk.
A:
You cannot ride bikes to Tunnel View. There is only one bike path. Check the NPS website for Yosemite Biking. Or ask on the Yosemite forum for advice about your plans. We have …

I am wondering if I can get to Tunnel view without a day use entry reservation ticket? Hoping to still be able to see some of the park even if I can't get a reservation

No. To see any of the Park you actually need to go into the Park. Tunnel View is just above Yosemite Valley and several miles inside the National Park boundary. You can make a reservation for the fee YARTS bus to travel into the Park without a Day Use Entry permit. But it does not go up to Tunnel View. The bus just goes to Yosemite Valley.
I’m visiting Yosemite on Sunday June 29, I plan on arriving around 8/8:30am...is traffic backed up throughout the park at the end of June or is it worse in July/August?
If you're traveling south through Yosemite, is there a way to see the Tunnel View? It's been so long since I last visited I can't remember the drive at all.
A:
Not quite sure what you mean. You can get to the Tunnel View from the valley regardless of the entry road that you take.
We are planing on traveling with a 4 years old and a 1.5 years old (with a carrier) , what trails in Yosemite are Suitable for little kids ?

Download the map and brochure, I recall 4-5 easy trails. I don’t have it handy, but I went on 4 trails of easy flat walking to moderate uphill elevations either with a lot of steps or …
Download the map and brochure, I recall 4-5 easy trails. I don’t have it handy, but I went on 4 trails of easy flat walking to moderate uphill elevations either with a lot of steps or decent gravel paths. There are also some paved bike paths and the park has a shuttle bus to get you around. You can also drive to some vistas and trailheads. But we used the shuttle. There is also a 2 hour tour by a ranger that’s interesting but may be too boring for youngsters.
