Mariposa, a gem nestled in the foothills of the Sierra Nevadas, is not just a gateway to Yosemite National Park; it's a destination brimming with charm, history, and adventure. As the founder of Yosemite E-Biking, I've had the pleasure of exploring every nook and cranny of this beautiful area, and I'm excited to share some of my favorite places with you. Whether you're an avid e-biker, a history buff, or simply in love with nature, Mariposa has something special for everyone.
1. Happy Goat Farm to Table Nestled just down the road from their regenerative farm, Happy Goat Farm to Table is more than just a diner; it's a testament to sustainable, delicious dining. With dishes crafted from ingredients harvested right from their farm and partner farms, Happy Goat offers a dining experience that's as genuine as it is delightful. It's a place where you can taste the love for the planet in every bite. Open Thursday to Monday from 7 AM to 3 PM, it's the perfect spot to fuel up before or unwind after a day of e-biking adventures.
2. The Alley Looking for nightlife in Yosemite? The Alley in Historic Downtown Mariposa is your go-to spot. With 16 rotating craft beers on tap, a boutique wine list, and artisan appetizer plates including pizza, The Alley offers a cozy ambiance perfect for relaxing after a day's ride. Their commitment to superb ambiance and great customer service makes every visit memorable. Open Tuesday to Saturday, with extended hours on weekends, it's a great place to soak in the local vibe.
3. Yosemite Climbing Association The Yosemite Climbing Association (YCA) is a cornerstone of the climbing community, preserving the rich history of Yosemite climbing for future generations. With over 10,000 pieces of historic gear, publications, images, and memorabilia, the YCA and the Yosemite Climbing Museum offer an unparalleled look into the evolution of climbing. Their dedication to education, stewardship, and community engagement makes them a must-visit for anyone interested in the legacy and future of climbing in Yosemite.
