Yosemite Camping ~ Tent / RV / Wilderness ~ It's All Available To You!



Yosemite camping in Yosemite National Park or its surrounding areas requires you to make your reservations early! Reservations are required year round. May through September are the busiest months and therefore the hardest months to get a tent or RV spot for camping in Yosemite National Park. There are several choices for you to choose where to pitch your tent, park your RV or fith wheel. A lot of people go camping because it makes for an affordable family vacation.

Know The Tricks To Getting A Yosemite Camping Reservation!

Camping In Tuolumne Meadows Is Fantastic

Hook ups are not available at sites for RV's and 5th wheels. Dumpstations are nearby. RV's cannot be longer than 40 feet. Fifth wheels cannot be longer than 35 feet.

If you would like to sleep in the wilderness of Yosemite National Forest, then you need a permit. Yosemite camping will get you a fine if you do not have a permit. There is over 1,100 square miles for to choose where to pitch your tent! Remember that what you pack in you need to pack out. Please be aware of Bear safety before you go. Bear proof lockers to hold your food are only available in designated areas of Little Yosemite Valley and the surrounding area. I recommend that you carry canisters because bear lockers may be full when a lot of people are visiting Yosemite. Food lockers are for everyone to use. Personal locks are not allowed and will be cut off if found.


Discover The Secrets Of Family Camping

Here is an interesting fact: There are 212 miles of John Muir Hiking Trails here. It took 20 years for the Park Service and the Sierra Club officials to complete the trails. These trails are the main footpath to all the peaks and waterfalls through the high country.
