North Pines Campground
Hosted by National Park Service
New listing
North Pines Campground is located in breathtaking Yosemite National Park in Central California's rugged Sierra Nevada Mountain Range, at an elevation of 4,000 feet. The site is situated in the heart of Yosemite Valley, an awe-inspiring landscape containing many of the famous features for which Yosemite National Park is known. Within Yosemite, visitors can gaze upon waterfalls, sheer granite cliffs, deep valleys, grand meadows, ancient giant sequoias, vast wilderness areas and so much more. North Pines is one of the three reservation campgrounds in Yosemite Valley. It offers paved roads and parking spurs, flush toilets and drinking water, and each campsite contains a picnic table, fire ring and food storage locker. Yosemite's free shuttle bus stops near the campground entrance, and nearby, historic Curry Village offers showers (for a fee), a general store, restaurants and bar, an amphitheater, and a tours and activities desk. Yosemite's trails, cliffs, roads and rivers provide endless recreational activities for any kind of visitor: hiking, biking, rock climbing, fishing, horseback riding, rafting, auto touring and photography are all very popular. Hiking trails range from the easy paved, two-mile roundtrip walk to Mirror Lake and Meadow to the grueling but rewarding 14- to 16-mile trek to Half Dome (permit required); both begin near the Pines Campgrounds, and many additional trailheads are within Yosemite Valley. Rafting the Merced River is a fun way to cool down on a summer day when water levels are sufficient, and the valley also offers numerous guided bus tours, educational programs, museums, ranger-led activities and an art center with workshops. Yosemite Valley is forested with a diverse mix of California black oak, ponderosa pine, incense-cedar, white fir and whiteleaf manzanita, which offers a pleasant combination of sun and shade. Through the trees, Yosemite's telltale granite cliff faces are visible, and the gentle, refreshing Merced River flows nearby. Within one to two hours, visitors can drive or ride a shuttle bus to some of Yosemite's most grand viewpoints and historic sites. Glacier Point offers sweeping views of Yosemite Valley, Little Yosemite Valley, Half Dome, Vernal and Nevada Falls, and Clouds Rest. A visit to Wawona and the Pioneer Yosemite History Center is like stepping back in time. The Tioga Road offers a 39-mile scenic drive past forests, meadows, lakes and granite domes, Tuolumne Meadows embodies the high-country of the Sierra Nevada with its broad sub-alpine meadows and granite domes and peaks, and beautiful Hetch Hetchy Reservoir is home to spectacular scenery and numerous wilderness trailheads.
