Yosemite National Park Day Hikes Map

The Yosemite National Park Day Hikes Topographic Map and Guide includes eighteen diverse hikes for all hiking enthusiasts, from the easy, 2.8-mile-long Hetch Hetchy Valley Overlook to the strenuous, 14.7 mile long Laurel Lake Trail with 3,900′ of elevation gain.

Each hike has a detailed map, a trail profile visualizing the changes in elevation, and a short summary of the interesting features encountered along the trip.

Some of the must-visit sites in this Topographic Map Guide are: Yosemite Falls—the tallest waterfall in North America at 2,425 feet, Mariposa Grove – a scenic loop featuring Giant Sequoias, some of the biggest trees in the world, and Mono Pass – a historic trans-Sierra route used by Native Americans and settlers prior to the development of wagon roads.

More convenient and easier to use than folded maps, but just as compact and lightweight, National Geographic’s Topographic Map Guide booklets are printed on “Backcountry Tough” waterproof, tear-resistant paper with stainless steel staples.

A full UTM grid is printed on the map to aid with GPS navigation.
