The hike is only available when trail conditions are safe—usually from April to October. The hike is a 2-mile round trip on a paved trail with a steep incline, so those with respiratory issues or not used to strenuous exercise can skip the hike and wait at the outdoor seating at Tuolumne Grove stop.
Each season in Yosemite Valley offers an advantage—summer for sunny and warm hikes, fall for peace and solitude, winter for the beautiful blanket of snow, and spring features the peak of the annual waterfall show.
You'll spend approximately 4–5 hours outdoors in nature, so it's best to dress in layers and wear comfortable shoes or hiking sandals. Bring a light water-resistant jacket, camera or phone, 1-liter water bottle, hat, sunscreen, sturdy umbrella (when there's possible rain), and some cash or credit card for meals, snacks and souvenirs.
Meals are not included in this tour, but there will be a stop halfway to and from Yosemite so you can buy food and beverages. There are also a few onsite restaurants in Yosemite Valley (usually crowded), but you can also bring a packed lunch and drink.
