Four-Mile Trail to Glacier Point Frommer's Recommended

Location The trail head is 1.25 miles from Yosemite Village, at the Four-Mile parking area at the marker post "V-18", In & Near The Valley
Transportation Take the shuttle bus to the Yosemite Lodge, stop 8, and walk behind the Lodge over the Swinging Bridge to Southeast Dr. The trail head is 0.25 miles west
Other 9.6 miles/7-10 hr. Strenuous

Frommer's Review

This trail climbs 3,200 feet, but efforts will be rewarded with terrific views of Yosemite Valley's north rim. Check on trail conditions before setting out; it's usually closed in winter. The trail ends at Glacier Point, but if you'd like to extend the hike, you can continue on to the Panorama Trail , but beware: The combined round-trip distance is 14 miles.

Note: This information was accurate when it was published, but can change without notice. Please be sure to confirm all rates and details directly with the companies in question before planning your trip.
