The John Muir Trail

Imagine walking through 211 miles of the most stunning scenery found in any range of mountains on any continent. The John Muir Trail runs through the heart of the Sierra Nevada, “The Range of Light.” Your path, across what many describe as the “Gentle Wilderness,” begins in the heart of Yosemite National Park and travels through the Ansel Adams Wilderness, the John Muir Wilderness, Kings Canyon National Park and Sequoia National Park. Clear water, intriguing flora and fascinating fauna abound. You’ll conquer eight major and two minor mountain passes, and take your last step on the trail to a point where every inch of the forty-eight contiguous states lies below your feet. Every life deserves at least one great adventure; make this one yours!
