Tioga Pass is the highest pass in the Sierra Nevada range, with an elevation of over 9,900 feet. The road that winds through the pass is typically only open from late spring to early fall, as heavy snowfall can make it impassable during the winter months.

Driving through Tioga Pass is an unforgettable experience. The road winds through a stunning landscape of rugged mountains, crystal-clear lakes, and verdant forests. You’ll see towering granite peaks, sparkling alpine streams, and wildlife such as mule deer and bighorn sheep.
