Yosemite’s Park is the perfect place for backpacking. The mild weather, the breathtaking landscapes and the over 1000 mi/1609.3 km of trails available, makes it a backpacker’s oasis. The park offers guided tours, but if you like you can backpack on your own. Just make sure to purchase the permits that are required for backpacking.
