Yosemite National Park will return to a reservations system for visitors in May/NPS file

Yosemite National Park will return to a reservation system for park visitors towards the end of May as the staff continues to work to reduce the spread of Covid-19.

The temporary day-use reservation system that resumes May 21 will allow the park to manage visitation levels to reduce risks associated with exposure to the disease. Day-use reservations will be required for all users, including annual and lifetime pass holders. Each reservation is valid for three days. 

Reservations will be available on www.recreation.gov beginning at 8 a.m. on April 21. Each day-use reservation is valid for one vehicle and the occupants of that vehicle. For more detailed information, visit this site. 

Day-use reservations are included for all visitors staying overnight in the park. This includes reservations for The Ahwahnee Hotel, Yosemite Valley Lodge, Curry Village, Wawona Hotel, Housekeeping Camp, NPS-managed campgrounds. Day-use reservations are also included for all visitors with wilderness and Half Dome permits and visitor entering the park via YARTS buses and on permitted commercial tours.  

The reservation system will be in effect through September 30.
