Alloggio

Frontcountry Campsite

On Night 1, you'll stay at a frontcountry campsite near Lee Vining, where we’ll meet, do a gear check, and enjoy a welcome dinner. This is your only night with vehicle access before stepping fully into Yosemite’s backcountry.

Wild Camping

The rest of the trip features primitive campsites, each carefully chosen for their beauty and proximity to water. Camps may be tucked beside alpine lakes like Dorothy, Wilma, or Smedberg—or nestled in quiet canyons like Kerrick or Matterhorn. There are no permanent facilities, but your guides will set up a clean and efficient camp each night. Whether it’s stargazing from your sleeping bag or enjoying morning coffee by a mountain lake, the accommodation on this trip is all about immersion in the wild beauty of the High Sierra.
