Tuolumne Meadows Campout- 4 nights, August 13-17, 2026

This trip is full. You may get on the waitlist, but if you find accommodations in an individual site, Tuolumne Meadows Lodge or another nearby campground or hotel you may sign up for a "Join the Fun" registration. Follow this link.

Come spend a long weekend in Tuolumne Meadows with your Rainbow Sierrans family! We will be camping in the woods near the gorgeous large, open sub-alpine meadow graced by the winding Tuolumne River and surrounded by majestic peaks and domes. From Tuolumne Meadows, you will see snow-covered peaks, have opportunity to hike along the river, climb domes, visit historic buildings and bag a peak. In addition to a variety of daily activities, Rainbow Sierrans camping trips feature camaraderie around a propane fire pit, a potluck dinner, and the option for game night, campfire sing alongs, star gazing, book reading, and whatever your heart desires. Some may want to explore Tenaya Lake, go fishing, or leave the park and head east to visit Lee Vining, Mono Lake or even the hot springs at Bridgeport.
