Mono Lake lies in the Mono Basin near Lee Vining, east of the Sierra Nevada. Its alkaline waters, bird habitat and tufa formations make a distinctive landscape stop. Use designated access areas and check current guidance before combining the visit with mountain roads or Yosemite’s seasonal eastern approach.
