Gateway to Yosemite National Park
Mariposa, California: your RV basecamp
A Gold-Country gateway on the Highway 140 approach — a calmer, lower-elevation RV staging option for Yosemite.
Best months
Apr–Jun for waterfalls; Sep–Oct for quiet and color
RV prep
Yosemite uses peak-season reservations and has tight RV length limits on some roads — verify both before entering.
