In this video, we are going to share with you a Yosemite National Park Travel plan that would be perfect for a 1-day visit. These recommendations are based on our frequent visits to these parks. We live just 2 hours from Yosemite, and we have hiked tons of trails here, but for today's video, we are only sharing the easy, short, and accessible things you can do in Yosemite if you only have a day or two to spend in the park.

But before we start, here are some reminders before you go.
1.) The entrance fee is $35.00 per vehicle, $30.00 for motorcycles, and $20.00 if by foot or on a bike.
2.) Due to covid, a reservation is required to enter Yosemite between May 20 to September 30 of 2022. They will make you turn around if you don't have a reservation.
Get your Yosemite reservations here: www.recreation.gov
Don't worry, you can still visit the park without a reservation, BUT you must arrive at an entrance station (except Hetch Hetchy) before 6 am or after 4 pm. This could change after covid, so make sure to check updates before going.
3.) We highly recommend using the free shuttle to get around Yosemite Valley. Parking fills throughout Yosemite by mid-morning. So, come early, find a parking space, and plan to leave your vehicle there for the remainder of the day as you will likely have a hard time finding another parking spot.
4.) Make sure to wear shoes with good support and can withstand lots of walking around Yosemite Valley. There are over 750 miles of trails to explore, so your shoes need to be up to the challenge.
5.) Phone signals are in and out, so make sure to download all the details that you need to get around, including maps and itineraries.
6.) Bring snacks and lots of water. Keep yourself hydrated at all times.
7.) And most of all, enjoy your visit. Start early, and make sure to check for road updates before going as road closures can happen.
This travel plan starts from the South Entrance along Highway 41. This will be your closest entrance if you are coming from Los Angeles or the San Diego area.
