3 essential tips for spending the summer in Yosemite ⬇️☀️🌲

1 Rent a float 🛟
One of the most peaceful (and scenic) ways to experience Yosemite Valley is by floating down the Merced River. You can rent rafts directly from Yosemite Valley Lodge (via Yosemite Hospitality) between late June and early August—depending on river conditions. The 3-mile float offers epic views of Half Dome and Yosemite Falls and ends near Sentinel Beach. Shuttle buses are available to bring you back to the start. Pro tip: bring waterproof phone cases and book early, as rentals sell out fast on hot days

2. Explore Beyond the Valley 🥾
While Yosemite Valley is iconic, spots like Glacier Point, Taft Point, Tuolumne Meadows, and Hetch Hetchy offer incredible views with fewer crowds. These areas give you a whole different side of the park

Summer days can hit the 90s, but mornings and higher elevations stay cool. Dress in light layers and always carry plenty of water—especially if you’re hiking trails like Mist Trail or Panorama Trail where there’s little shade
