Important update from the National Park Service regarding vehicle reservation requirements for the Natural Firefall event in February 2025. |
|
If you’re considering visiting Yosemite National Park during February either for a fun visit or specifically during the “Natural Firefall” event, we want to make sure you’re aware of the required weekend reservations that month. Although reservations to enter Yosemite will be required, there are other ways to enter the park, including organized tours. Be sure to visit our 100 Things to Do page for more about things to do in Mariposa County outside of the park. The following is information our organization has distilled from the official announcement from Yosemite National Park. You can read the official information here. Reservations will be required for the following dates in February:
On days when reservations are required, they’ll be needed to enter Yosemite National Park for all visitors 24 hours a day. Visitors with in-park lodging or camping reservations in areas such as Yosemite Valley, Wawona, Foresta or Yosemite West do not need to make an vehicle reservation to enter the park. The first 50% of vehicle reservations for all required dates will become available at 8 am PST on November 18, 2024. The remaining 50% of reservations will become available two days prior to the reservation date. For example, on February 21 at 8 am, day-use reservations for February 23 will be available.
