Escape to Yosemite with Hillel! 🏕️
Kick off your school year the right way - join us for a night under the stars in Yosemite Valley on August 23rd–24th.
Here's what's waiting for you:
The Mist Trail (~7-mile hike)
Swimming & chilling at the Merced River & Mirror Lake
Campfire dinner + s'mores
Stargazing far from city lights
Games, good vibes & great company at the campsite
All of this for just $25 - which covers three full meals (lunch, dinner & breakfast) and your pre-booked campsite spot. We will not cover camping supplies (tents, sleeping bags, sleeping pad) but we will make it easy to rent. Link in bio to register!
📍Upper Pines Campground, Yosemite Valley 🕛 Campsite is ours from 12PM on the 23rd to 12PM on the 24th
NOTE: Got a car? We need YOU. 🚗 The number of spots available depends entirely on how many drivers we have - so if you can drive, please sign up! You'd literally be making this trip possible for everyone.
