With some awesome road trip options available in the surrounding area, renting a car makes sense. Without one, it’d be much more difficult to experience all that Angels Camp, 25 miles away, has to offer. Moaning Cavern ought to be at the top of your list here. Greenhorn Creek Resort and California Caverns are terrific attractions too. The locals are also likely to point you toward Mariposa, 30 miles away. If you can only see one attraction here, let it be Yosemite Ziplines and Adventure Ranch. (But we’d also recommend Mariposa Museum and History Center and Mariposa County Courthouse.)
