Raymond is a very historic small town featuring an incredible free museum (open Sundays only), as well as a general store, restaurant, saloons, lakes, rivers, hiking trails, granite mine, historic markers and the famous stage run to Yosemite. In the old days, before all the highways were built, travelers heading north to Yosemite National Park took the train to Raymond and then caught a stage to make the rest of the trek. Remnants of the old railway and turntable, to turn the train around, are still visible and showcased at the Raymond Museum.

Today, bike and motorcycle enthusiasts from all over the world come to Raymond to ride the old stage road (now Road 600) and other curvy byways to Yosemite, stopping to visit the many historical monuments on the way.

Travel to Yosemite National Park:

Although we are relatively close to the southern entrance, the park is massive and winding roads and slow traffic increase travel time substantially. Give yourself at least an hour to reach the southern entrance to the park and even more time to get to popular sites within the park. The Mariposa Grove (giant sequoias) is very close to the entrance of the park. Note, the park requires reservations during most of the summer during particular times, so be sure to visit their website for particulars.
