Yosemite Yoga & Hiking: Private Guided Adventure

Your guide leads the hike and the yoga session, then you choose what comes next.

A private guided hiking and yoga activity in Yosemite combines a customized trail experience with an instructor-led yoga session at a scenic location, tailored to your group's fitness level and preferences. The experience lasts up to 8 hours and includes park entry on the day of the activity, a knowledgeable guide with local insights, and the option to request a yoga pad. Moderate physical fitness is required. The activity is not suitable for travelers with spinal injuries, pregnancy, or cardiovascular concerns.

The experience

You meet your guide at the start and spend time discussing what your group wants from the day. The distance you're comfortable hiking, the pace that suits everyone, whether you want the yoga mid-hike or at the end, and how much time you want to spend exploring. Your guide covers safety, Leave No Trace principles, and what to expect, then leads you into Yosemite's landscapes. The hike itself is built around your preferences: you choose the distance and the pace, and your guide shares insights about the park as you move through it.

At a scenic spot (beneath towering pines, beside a flowing stream, or overlooking a granite valley) your instructor leads a yoga session. The timing is flexible. Some groups practice mid-hike to reset before continuing, others save it for the end of the day. After yoga, you rest and eat a snack or lunch in the same inspiring setting. If time remains and your group wants more, your guide can lead you to additional viewpoints, hidden paths, or quieter corners of the park before you head back.

The whole experience can stretch to 8 hours, or you can shorten it to a half-day outing. Because it's private, only your party, the guide adjusts everything on the fly: if the group is moving faster than expected, you can reach a more distant viewpoint. If someone needs to slow down, the route adapts. Park entry is included on the day of your activity.

Top questions

What happens if it rains?

It may be canceled due to bad weather. If that happens, you're offered another date or a refund. Free cancellation up to 24 h before the start.

Can I customize the hike distance and difficulty for my group?

Yes. Your guide tailors the hike to your group's preferred distance and pace before you start, and adjusts the route based on how everyone is moving during the day. The experience is built around your fitness level and interests.

When does the yoga session happen during the day?

Your instructor leads yoga at a time that works for your group: mid-hike if you want to reset and continue exploring, or at the end of the day as a way to wind down. You decide the timing when you meet your guide.

What's included in the experience?

The experience includes park entry on the day of activity, a private guide with expert local knowledge and safety instruction, a customized hiking route, an instructor-led yoga session, a snack or lunch at a scenic location, and the option to request a yoga pad. You can explore for up to 8 hours or choose a shorter outing.

Do I need to be an experienced hiker or yogi?

You need at least a moderate level of physical fitness. The guide customizes both the hiking distance and the yoga practice to match your group's abilities, so beginners and experienced people can do this together. The activity is not recommended for travelers with spinal injuries, pregnancy, or poor cardiovascular health.

Is Yosemite entry fee included in the price?

Park entry on the day of your activity is included. International visitors may owe an additional National Park entrance fee collected in-destination. Your guide will advise you on this when you book.

How many people can join this experience?

This is a private experience for your party only: no other groups join you. Your guide leads just your group, which is why the hike distance, pace, and yoga timing can be fully customized.
