About Wassama Round House State Historic Park
A roundhouse built by Southern Sierra Miwok people stands at the center of this site, marking ground used for ceremonial gatherings. The land sits in the Sierra Nevada foothills of central California and was set aside to protect that history and the structure itself. What visitors find here is the roundhouse and the grounds around it, tied to the traditions of the people who built it.
Hours, fees, camping, reservations and closures are set by the park and change often. Check the official park site before you go.
