Recreational Activity
Bass Lake is very popular. Whether you want to go to a restaurant, get on a boat or take a hike, Bass Lake has it all.
We would recommend bringing a boat (or renting one) and getting on the lake for a day. There is cliff jumping at the southern end of the lake (which is technically a dam).

Bars & Restaurants:

Yosemite Mountain Sugar Pine Railroad's track may only be four miles long, but their trains cover decades in that distance. Here, a duo of antique steam engines—one built in 1913, the other in 1928—tow travelers through the piney wilderness of Sierra National Forest.
Along the way, guides provide a glimpse of how America's wilderness looked to the railroad companies and loggers as they worked their way westward and shipped raw materials back east.
The lesson also incorporates a bit of biology, as tour-leaders will often deviate from historical discussion to talk about local wildlife or how lumberjacks evolved their ax hands.
On certain evenings, the conductors extend the track tour from one-hour to three. Guests begin the evening with a barbecue dinner, then ride the train to a campfire for a sing-along. They then get back on the locomotive for an evening trip back to the modern era.
