In the 1930s, our town was idling along, minding its own business, when Yosemite National Park, previously a neighbor, expanded its borders and surrounded the town. Ever since, Wawona has been entirely within Yosemite. This rare situation, known as an inholding, is a fact of life for locals but makes Wawona very special. It is a tremendous privilege to live or visit here, as is reflected in the pride people take in welcoming others, enjoying and preserving the resource of the Park, and appreciating how fortunate our small town is. From Wawona, there are trails to nearby areas of great beauty, such as the South Fork of the Merced River, the Grove of Giant Redwoods, the Lower and Upper Chilnualna Falls, Meadow Loop road, and many other. This is the country that Galen Clark and other Yosemite Pioneers homesteaded. There are trails that lead throughout the 1000+ square miles of Yosemite. Many hike and some ride these trails. Badger Pass and Yosemite Valley are easily reached.

Wawona is a special place where you can just be yourself.

Further details for this holiday house rental in Yosemite National Park, USA

Outside our home: Our home has several decks are available for your use- the larger one with the hot tub which wraps around to the front, a smaller one off the living room, and one in the front at the second floor level. Behind the house is Chilnualna Falls Creek. There's a make-shift trail that will take you through a wooded area to the main part of the river only a short distance away. Depending on the season, you can either enjoy the view or actually walk across the river! I would guess that the river is 50 to 100 feet wide and filled with smooth stones of various sizes which have washed downstream over the ages.

Local hikes: Many people enjoy the easy walk to the Lower Chilnualna Falls and the Swinging Bridge, about a mile upstream. Walk about 500 feet to the main road, take a right, and follow the signs taking you up to Chilnualna Creek Falls to your left before the bridge. The Lower Falls is a walk of about 10 minutes, but if you're more ambitious, continue up to the Upper Falls, which will take you the beginning of the backcountry and ultimately the high country. I think the hike up should take about 2 hours. Several swimming holes, carved out of the rock can be found by looking for detours off to your right from the main path. To get to the Swinging Bridge, instead of turning off to the Falls, continue across the bridge and then to the end of the road. The trail is to your left, but the basic idea is to follow the river. You will soon get to the Swinging Bridge, which can also be approached from the other side of the river. Enjoy!

Other Activities: library, movie rentals, history center, giant redwoods grove
