If you are planning on visiting Yosemite National Park during the summer high season 2025 the Yosemite Vehicle Pass requirement has been reinstalled for the year.

Now reinstated for 2025, the Yosemite Vehicle Passes can easily be reserved at Recreation.gov.  Part of the tickets will be available May 6th at 8am sharp, the other part are available 7 days before your arrival date at 8am sharp.  Go into recreation.gov and have you account ready in advance!

Now this is only for entrance to the park between 6am and 2pm daily between June 15th and August 15th and on Memorial Day and Labor Day holiday weekends.  You can anytime go in before 6am and after 2pm without reservations!

You can also avoid these reservations by taking YARTS busses into Yosemite Valley by purchasing tickets at YARTS.com from our bus stop.

• You can use YARTS.com to enter by bus from our bus stop
• Anyone with a wilderness or Half Dome permit can enter day-of
• You can drive into the park before 5am and leave after 4pm
• OR you can book through that Recreation.gov link at 8 a.m., 7 days prior to your arrival when a second set of passes come available.
