Reviews
"Great hike. Wide paths mostly. Little Yosemite hike has a creek beside with not too obvious paths within the first 1 mile of the hike to the creek. Winter to spring time is great to visit the creek. My dog loves the creek. At bottlenecks the creek flows pretty fast, careful if you’re letting in small dogs. Lots of parking spots, you’re sure to find parking even on the busiest days . Usually there is a $6 entry fee. Restrooms are available at the beginning of the hike. Poop bags for dogs are provided at the beginning of the hike too. You might encounter cows during your hike."
"Very nice place with amazing view, Many hiking trails options with Creek. Plenty of Parking space. Went there on weekends. Hiking brochures available at the gate and starting of trail. Main trail is little Yosemite."
"What a hidden gem! We backpacked here 3 nights with our 2 kids. We hiked the McCorkle trail, as well as little Yosemite. The views at the top above the backpacking camp are breathtaking!! The hike was strenuous, and full of sun. Rock scramble was also cool but covered in poison oak! We saw a large rattle snake there as well. The 2.3 miles to camp was gorgeous- many shades of green, oaks, interesting rock formations. The backpacking camp was quiet, but we could hear the loud convos coming from Eagle’s aerie. The visitors center is really well done and informative! The guides there were friendly and knowledgeable. Little Yosemite was also super fun, watch out for broken glass. It looked like someone had dropped a brown bottle. I would advise wearing shoes."
"Very nice place with amazing views, picnic areas, and hiking trails along the creek where you can enjoy the sights of small waterfalls and rock formations. The main trail going to little Yosemite area is moderate and suitable for kids. There are multiple parking spots in the large parking lots."
