3 of the Best Things to Do in Yosemite in July
1. Experience the Thrill of Whitewater Rafting
Yosemite National Park offers excellent whitewater rafting! There are several different spots for whitewater rafting in Yosemite that have varying levels of difficulty, so visitors of all ages can enjoy this exciting activity. You’ll love feeling the cool spray of the water as you fly down this rushing river, surrounded by some of the park’s most stunning scenery.
2. Gaze in Awe at the Giant Sequoias
Afternoons can get warm and crowded in Yosemite National Park, so try exploring one of the sequoia groves! These areas tend to be a bit cooler and usually contain fewer tourists. You’ll love staring upward at these enormous, towering trees and marveling at their beauty. There’s plenty of wildflowers and wildlife here as well, so be sure to bring along your camera to capture some picturesque nature scenes!
3. Cool off in the Refreshing Water
Last but not least, one of the best things to do in Yosemite in July is to take a dip! This park contains numerous bodies of water, most of which allow swimming (the ones that don’t will have “No Swimming” signs, so pay attention to those). Wear your swimsuit to Yosemite National Park so you can hop into a lake or river during your visit. However, be aware that swimming in certain areas can be dangerous if you don’t take the necessary precautions. Take a look at the water safety rules of the park before you go so you can have a fun and safe experience!
