Opening, Closing, and Reservation Updates
How quickly campgrounds open in spring or early summer depends on a variety of factors. Dates are tentative and subject to change.
Updates
- As of noon on Monday, December 7, 2020, all park campgrounds are closed based on guidance from state and local public health officials and in compliance with California's regional Stay-At-Home order. This closure will be in effect until local conditions change.
- On January 15, at 7 am PST, 50% of Upper Pines will be released for arrivals between May 15 and June 14, 2021. Opening dates in 2021 for other Yosemite campgrounds have not yet been determined. Check back here for updates.
- Wawona Campground is closed for sewer system repair

(Closing dates refer to the day the campground closes; the night before that is the last night to camp.)
Backcountry campgrounds at Little Yosemite Valley and near the High Sierra camps (Glen Aulin, May Lake, Sunrise, Merced Lake, and Vogelsang) are not part of the campground reservation system. A wilderness permit is required to stay at these campgrounds.
High Sierra Camps themselves and Housekeeping Camp are lodging facilities managed by Yosemite Hospitality.
