About Wawona Campground

Wawona Campground is located in breathtaking Yosemite National Park in Central California's rugged Sierra Nevada Mountain Range. The site is situated at the southern end of the park, 27 miles and approximately 45 minutes from Yosemite Valley, at an elevation of 4000 feet.  Wawona was home to the park's headquarters in 1904 and historic structures still stand today. The majestic Mariposa Grove of Giant Sequoias is just a short drive away. Within Yosemite, visitors gaze upon waterfalls, sheer granite cliffs, deep valleys, grand meadows, ancient giant sequoias, a vast wilderness area and much more. When on reservation, Wawona campsites are available to reserve up to five months in advance on the 15th of each month at 7:00 a.m. PST. For example, on January 15, arrival dates for the period May 15 to June 14 become available to reserve, and therefore, the full arrival date window would be from the campground open date to June 14.   Reservation Tips! Campsites in Yosemite are extremely popular and typically sell out in minutes. Login to your account or create a new account before the 7:00 a.m. (PST) release time. You may only add reservations to your cart and proceed with your reservation if you are logged into your account. The recreation.gov call center does NOT have access to additional sites or additional information beyond what is published on recreation.gov.  Yosemite National Park Campground Reservation Dates

63-c. Wonderful site. Close to the river so we were able to walk down and dip our toes. The sound of the water was beautiful too. Level campsite and friendly staff. Clean and tidy bathrooms and drinking water.

Clean facilities. Great campground. Except for the low-life next to us that took down their camp at 3am talking loudly and slamming the car doors for an hour.
Not much the park service can do about that. Some people are just inconsiderate a--holes.

We had a lovely stay for one night in Wawona. We stayed overnight in our car to be close to all the hiking paths in Yosemite. We made dinner on the provided grill.
