Learn more about El Portal

At the western gateway to Yosemite, this tiny mountain community offers front-row access to natural wonders without the park's crowds. The rushing Merced River provides a soundtrack for morning coffee at El Portal Market before heading into the park. Grab hiking advice from locals who casually mention Half Dome as if discussing a neighborhood stroll. Summer evenings find residents cooling off in swimming holes that tourists rarely discover. The lack of resort amenities is precisely the point - this is where park employees and climbers gather to trade stories over beers. For the best experience, book a riverside cabin and fall asleep to the sound of water tumbling over ancient granite.
