Lembert Dome

This place was one of the best place among whole trail courses in Yosemite. Not really hard course but there are some slippery rock climbing parts in the end to get the top of the dome.

Stunning and excellent view. Takes 45 minutes to get up when coming from Dog Lake parking. Just a breath taking view, as you will be the highest point in the middle of the valley.

Our first hike at Yosemite and it was gorgeous. We entered the park from the east, saw the dome and decided we wanted to take in the view from the top. 40th birthday done right.

Are you afraid of heights? Then this place might scare your pants off. I saw some ppl climbing and one guy made it to the top and other guy got stuck for more than an hour. But you can walk up as far as you can

Hiking to Lembert Dome, Dog Lake, Soda Springs and Parsons Lodge is a full day of fabulous! I hiked up Lembert Dome alone the first time years ago and it was great to share this gorgeous hike of views, springs, and the Tuolumne River the 2nd time around with great friends and my better half. This area also provides a lot more views to wildlife. Bears, marmots, coyotes, foxes, squirrles, chickarees, and lots of deer.

We LOVED this hike. There happened to be a fire on the west side of Yosemite when we were here so the Valley was closed. We were camping on the east side near Lee Vining so decided to look on Google for a walk to do that was close to us. So glad we decided to give this walk a go. The walk through the trees is lovely. We set off around 7:30 in the morning and there were hardly any other people around. The walk starts by the toilets and wraps around the dome. The view when you get onto the rock part of the dome is amazing, and being there so early, there was only one other person up there with us. To top it off, we were lucky enough to encounter a docile bear on the way down. We were walking with a bear bell.

we went there off season and the campground and trails were closed, but we went as far as we could up the flat part of the dome and even the view from there was amazing!!

Great little hike, 2hrs total time approx Hiked from the lembert dome car park ;up through the woods to the first easily seen some head.... this was actually the smaller dome peak but was worth a detour. The trail up to that point was faultless and we saw some deer up close, great walk.
