Enjoy the thrill of Yosemite rock climbing or simply like the breath-taking view of 3,000-foot sheer granite walls at Yosemite National Park.

If you’re an avid rock climber, then you’re probably already aware of all the climbing Yosemite has to offer. Maybe you just want to “climb on in” and hang with real climbers, stop by the Sunnyside Campground (now officially named “Camp 4”).

Non-climbers can enjoy spending the afternoon, picnicking while watching the most elite on their way up to the top of 3593-foot El Capitan, the largest single monolith of granite in the world. Yosemite Mountaineering School is a prime place to “learn the ropes” of rock climbing. It is open in Yosemite Valley all year and at Tuolumne Meadows during the summer.
