Available Nov 13–15 · 2 nights7 sites open for every nightA forested campground near fishing, hiking, and mountain biking. Most campsites have no hookups, and RV fit varies by site.
Bridalveil Creek Campground sits high on Glacier Point Road at about 7,200 feet, roughly 9 miles up the road and 26 miles from Yosemite Valley, where the forest opens to views of granite domes and ridgelines through stands of red fir, lodgepole pine, vanilla-scented Jeffrey pine and scattered western juniper. The gentle Bridalveil Creek runs near the camping loops and the site plan is compact but varied: TOTAL CAMPSITES: 107, divided among Loop A (34 sites), Loop B (30 sites), Loop C (40 sites) and a small horse loop (3 sites).











Length limits vary by campsite.

“Campground is ok. Recreation.gov is a pain, and sometimes doesn't work at all. ”
“Site was good. Mostly private, only really in view of sites across the road. Nearby to the bathroom. The women's side was good, the mens side was less than ideal. ”
