Neighborhood :
Yosemite Valley

The trees in this grove are more than 3,000 years old, more than 50 feet around, and reach up over 300 feet seemingly to touch the sky. You can drive to the lower edge of the grove, but parking is strictly limited and you may wait in line for quite a while; better to take the free shuttle from the Wawona General Store, which departs every 15 minutes from 9a to 4:30p. Note: Trailers and motor homes are not permitted on the Mariposa Grove Road.
