Just inside Yosemite’s south gate and a scenic ride from TenayaLodge, Wawona is a great place for “time-travelers” to connect with Yosemite history as well as outdoor recreation.
Wawona is the home to the Pioneer Yosemite History Center, a collection of historic buildings including one of the region’s only remaining covered bridges, built in 1868 by Yosemite’s fabled first guardian, Galen Clark.
Pretty Chilnualna Falls is here, as well as Wawona Golf Course, the first and oldest regulation course in the Sierra Nevada, established in 1918.
