MARIPOSA COUNTY Mariposa County is steeped in rich mining and western history and is home to Yosemite National Park’s most inspiring natural wonders: Half Dome, Yosemite Falls and El Capitan. Yosemite was designated as UNESCO World Heritage site in 1984. It’s no wonder that visiting Yosemite is on the top of so many bucket lists! In Mariposa County’s historic towns, you’ll discover outstanding restaurants, shopping, museums and attractions. Yosemite is a year-round destination and travel experts recommend a minimum stay of three nights when visiting Yosemite, either for a quiet mid-week stay, or extended weekend visit. With each changing season, new sights, sounds and smells await. Visitors can access Yosemite year-round through Highways 41 and 120 as well as Highway 140, the “All-Weather Highway”, which winds along the beautiful Merced River Canyon before entering Yosemite Valley. The best place to start your trip planning is at Yosemite.com, the top website for finding the perfect hotels & motels, cabin rentals and bed & breakfasts in the area. Additionally, you’ll find information about historic lodging inside of Yosemite - from the stunning architecture of The Ahwahnee to the historic elegance of the Wawona Hotel or the famous history of Curry Village. Also, inside the park boundary, you can choose from many private vacation rentals in areas like Wawona, Foresta or Yosemite West. Many other lodging options exist outside the park too including the four-diamond resort Tenaya Lodge at Yosemite in Fish Camp, or more budget-friendly lodging options in the historic town of Mariposa and surrounding areas. Mariposa County is recovering from several devastating wildfires, causing many residents to lose their homes.
