Yosemite National Park 4K drive (Big Oak/Tunnel View) - California

May 23, 2021. The Big Oak Flat entrance to Yosemite National Park is located on CA Highway 120 roughly 24 miles (39 km) east of Groveland, CA. CA Highway 120 is the most direct route into Yosemite National Park from the San Francisco Bay Area, Sacramento and Northern California locations. Traveling the historic Big Oak Flat Road from the western entrance of Yosemite National Park across to the Tioga Pass entrance on the east, provides drivers easy access to the stunning beauty of Yosemite’s high country landscapes. To enjoy your trip to the fullest, be sure to stop at the National Park Service Information Station just inside the Big Oak Flat entrance to the Park, where interesting and informative materials are available to you. This is a highly recommended stop for anyone who has an interest in learning more about the area before beginning the drive eastward toward the high country. About 4.5 miles inside the Big Oak Flat park entrance grows the Merced Grove of Giant Sequoia trees; one of three sequoia groves in Yosemite Park. The Merced Grove is the only growth of sequoias in the park that is not accessible by car, but the hike to the grove of about 20 trees is only 2 miles and is well worth it! Continuing east a short distance further along the Big Oak Flat Road is Crane Flat and then the Tuolumne Grove of sequoias. These majestic giants are only a short distance from the parking area along self guided nature trail Tunnel View is a scenic viewpoint on State Route 41 in Yosemite National Park. Visitors have seen and documented the iconic and expansive views of Yosemite Valley from the overlook since its opening in 1933.[1] The large viewpoint area is located directly east of the Wawona Tunnel portal, as one enters Yosemite Valley from points south.[1] The view looks eastward into Yosemite Valley, and includes surrounding features, such as the southwest face of El Capitan on the left, Half Dome on axis, and Bridalveil Fall on the right. For many arriving by road, this is the stunning first view, upon suddenly exiting the long and dark tunnel, of Yosemite Valley and its setting. A turn out with parking lot accommodates leaving vehicles behind, to take it all in.[1] The trailhead, for the hiking trail up and south to Inspiration Point, is located here. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tunne...
