Yosemite campgrounds campground
Camp 4 (Yosemite) reservations
Yosemite Valley, CA
Camp 4 is Yosemite Valley's walk-in campground: 61 tent-only sites, $10 a person, no pets. In its reservation season each night opens one week ahead at 7 a.m. Pacific; in 2026 that ran April 15 to November 28 (extended from October). Outside it, Camp 4 is first-come, first-served.
The booking rule here is Camp 4's own: one week ahead, one day at a time. The rest works like the Yosemite campgrounds rules. Season: April 15, 2026 to November 28, 2026 (reservation period; first-come, first-served the rest of the year).
