Come Friday, you'll no longer need an advance day-use reservation to visit Yosemite National Park.

The expiration of required reservations comes as park visitation ebbs and lodging prices begin to drop in autumn and into the winter and Yosemite remains open at all entrances. Also dropping are the temperatures, which means that Yosemite will be wide open for the best time to hike the park’s hundreds of miles of trails. 

The Yosemite Mariposa County Tourism Bureau urges visitors to travel safely by wearing a mask, social distancing and respecting Nature’s Rules while in Yosemite Mariposa County and all outdoor destinations.
