Dates are approximate and may change because of weather or resource management concerns.  Bridge Bay, Canyon, Grant VIllage and Madison campgrounds all contain accessible sites.

Following the fires of 1988, thousands of dead trees, known as snags, were left standing in Yellowstone.  These snags may fall with very little warning, so please be cautious and alert for falling snags in campsites.

CAMPING RULES

Camping or overnight vehicle parking in pullouts, picnic areas, picnic grounds, or any place other than a designated campgound are not permitted and there are no overflow camping facilities.  However, camping is often available in neighboring communities and forests outside the park.

Camping is limited to 14 days between June 15 and September 15 and to 30 days the rest of the year.  There is no limit at Fishing Bridge RV Park.  Check-out time for all campgrounds is 10:00 AM.

QUIET HOURS.  Camping in Yellowstone is a special experience. Each visitor deserves the opportunity to hear the birds, wildlife, and streams in this beautiful environment.  Respect the rights of other campers and comply with the law by adhering to quiet hours, *:00PM to 8:00AM (10:00PM to 7:00AM at Fishing Bridge RV Park).  No generators, or other noise disturbances will be allowed during this time.  Generators are only permitted in six campgrounds and the Fishing Bridge RV Park (see the table above for details).

GOLDEN AGE/GOLDEN ACCESS DISCOUNTS.  Holders of Golden Age and Golden Access permits will be given approximately 50% discounts on camping fees.  This does not apply at Fishing Bridge RV Park.

GROUP CAMPING. Group camping areas are available at Madison, Grant, and Bridge Bay campgrounds from late May through the closing date for large organized groups with a designated leader such as youth groups or educational groups.  The fees range from $40-$70 per night, depending on the size of the group.  Advance reservations are required and can be made by writing Yellowstone National Park Lodges, PO Box 165, YNP, WY or by phoning (307)344-7311
