It's only 1 mile out and back to enjoy an extraordinary panoramic view of Tuolumne Meadows and the surrounding Sierra Nevada mountains. The trail starts along the road to the west of the parking area. There's no real trail to the top of this bald granite dome--just find a way that looks good and you'll be at the top within a few minutes. If you wanna extend your hike, follow the trail along the base of the dome and the forest edge to a rapids and small waterfall on the Tuolumne River. If you go out that way, it’s an easy 2.3-mile, or 3.7 kilometer round trip hike. Nothing too strenuous!
