Top Reasons to Go to Eastern Sierra

Hiking: Whether you walk the paved loops in the national parks or head off the beaten path into the backcountry, a hike through groves and meadows or alongside streams and waterfalls will allow you to see, smell, and feel nature up close.

Winter fun: Famous for its incredible snowpack—some of the deepest in the North American continent—the Sierra Nevada has something for every winter-sports fan.

Live it up: Mammoth Lakes is eastern California's most exciting resort area.

Road trip heaven: Legendary Highway 395 is one of California's most scenic byways, traveling to Independence, Lone Pine, Bishop, and beyond, for a glimpse of Old West history.

Go with the flow: Fish, float, raft, and row in the abundant lakes, hot springs, creeks, and rivers.
