Watch the last rays of sunset leave El Capitan, as you sit in El Cap Meadow.
After entering the park, keep driving the loop until you get onto Northside Drive, and then park once you are right below El Capitan (the 3,000ft granite monolith that is very hard to miss).
Once you've parked, grab a blanket, snacks, and a beverage. With these items in hand, walk over to the eastern side of the meadow and stay on the designated path that goes past the fences and into the meadow. Now find a spot to relax and enjoy the sunset. A spot that is my personal favorite is right next to the tree on the eastern side of the meadow.
El Capitan El Capitan is a majestic rock wall extending far into the sky above a beautiful lush green meadow. It is awe inspiring. The drive into Yosemite National park takes you through winding treed roads with amazing views along the way. El Capitan, mountain in Yosemite National Park, east-central California. One of the park’s most notable landmarks, the granite monolith features nearly vertical walls and towers some 3,600 feet over the western end of Yosemite Valley. Popular with climbers, it was first summited in 1958. Learn more about El Capitan.
