This breathtaking and spectacular sight is located on Highway 41 just north of Wawona, and just south of the Valley Floor. This popular spot is the most photographed view of the valley. It received its name because it is the first view of the valley after exiting the tunnel. Be sure to drive slow and watch for pedestrians crossing from one of the two parking areas. Take plenty of film and batteries for your camera.
