Yosemite Drops Reservation Requirement Earlier Than Planned - What to Know
Briefly

The reservation requirement was planned to extend through October 27, but based on our monitoring of visitor use patterns and impacts, we are ending a few weeks early.
Yosemite has been grappling with congestion - even gridlock - for decades. We want to build from the lessons learned from the last three summer[s] of managed access.
We are currently developing the Visitor Access Management Plan in order to design an approach that provides a great visitor experience while protecting Yosemite's natural and cultural resources.
This year, reservations were required on some weekends in February as well as on Presidents' Day in addition to the busy spring, summer, and early fall seasons.
