Parque nacional de Yosemite (Yosemite National Park)

El Parque Nacional de Yosemite (en inglés Yosemite National Park, pronunciado joʊˈsɛmɨtiː) se ubica a aproximadamente 320 km al este de San Francisco, en California, Estados Unidos. Cubre un área de 3081 km² y se extiende a través de las laderas orientales de la cadena montañosa de Sierra Nevada. Es visitado por más de cuatro millones de personas cada año, y la gran mayoría solo recorre la parte del valle de Yosemite. Fue nombrado Patrimonio Mundial de la Humanidad por la Unesco en 1984 y es reconocido internacionalmente por sus acantilados de granito, saltos de agua, ríos cristalinos, bosques de secuoyas gigantes y la gran diversidad biológica (cerca del 95% del área del parque está designada área silvestre). Fue el primer parque dispuesto por el gobierno federal de los Estados Unidos y a través del trabajo de personas como John Muir fue un punto relevante en el desarrollo de la idea de parques nacionales.
Yosemite es uno de los hábitats más grandes y menos fragmentado, posee una gran diversidad de plantas y animales. El parque tiene una elevación que va de 600 a 4000 metros y contiene cinco zonas principales de vegetación: área boscosa de robles, vegetación de baja montaña, vegetación de alta montaña, vegetación subalpina y vegetación alpina. De las 7000 especies de plantas de California, cerca del 50% se encuentran en Sierra Nevada, y más del 20% dentro del parque.

    Beautiful views everywhere you look. If you go early the crowds aren’t too bad. We didn’t have to wait in line going in early but saw some long lines on our last day when we left the park around noon.

  • Such a beautiful park and so much to see. Exited through the east and wish I would have spent some time that way! Some waterfalls and lakes are seasonal so mind that if you go there in the summer. Mirror lake was not there in mid August! So much to see and hike though!

  • Gorgeous National Park! Yosemite Valley is stunning but make sure you go to Glazier Point. The view looking down at Yosemite Valley and seeing El Capitan and Half Dome is worth the trip. If you want to travel but are afraid of getting Covid hit up a National Park. Go during the week and there isn't much of a crowd. My wife and I went to Kings Canyon and Sequoia National Park's as well. A great trip!

  • Yosemite National Park is absolutely beautiful being so close to a major metropolitan center like San Francisco / Silicon Valley makes this park very accessible to a very large population. While it is an incredibly beautiful park it is not the best in terms of the amount of people who come to visit. I will say this is without a doubt one of America’s most beautiful spaces it should be visited during times when there are the least amount of people. I will give a more in-depth review but encouraging people to visit this park might be environmentally concerning when it’s already so popular.

  • Beautiful park. Made it into the valley this time and enjoyed the Yosemite Falls hike. Was impressed by the shop and restaurant facilities available in the valley. Enjoyed the drive from Lee Vining, so many beautiful places to stop along the way. You don't even need to go into the valley to enjoy beautiful hikes or clear water.

  • One of the best experiences I’ve had in my life. I travelled to California just to experience this moment. Words can not explain the beauty of this National Treasure. I encourage you to visit and experience the picturesque scenery of this place. My only wish is I could visit Yosemite again and spend days navigating through its marvels. This is one off my bucket list.

  • The park is beautiful! It would be nice if there were signs indicating how far to your destination along the drive. But, we had an amazing time and the pictures look like a painting! Absolutely beautiful!
