Romantic Activities in Yosemite

The gorgeous landscape alone makes for plenty of romantic activities in Yosemite. Make a date night out of taking in the cosmos with a guided stargazing tour. Yosemite stargazing tours at Evergreen Lodge let you see the Milky Way in exquisite detail thanks to the provided telescopes – and the expert guides will point the way toward constellations, planets, and more for you to see.  

Visit Yosemite’s beautiful natural wonders like Hetch Hetchy and Wapama Falls with guided hikes from each lodge. Take on a full day excursion to accomplish a long hike together, or take it easy on one of the three short nature trails at Rush Creek Lodge

When it’s time to relax, the spa at Rush Creek Lodge is ready to help you achieve ultimate relaxation. Specially designed with elements that bring the beauty of nature indoors to a tranquil spa setting, our Yosemite spa offers couples massages and other treatments to help you wind down and melt into a relaxing spa getaway.
