Yosemite: YARTS Bus Service from Fresno Up and Running

 

YARTS bus service to Yosemite

Just in time for summer, YARTS  (Yosemite Area Regional Transportation System) has added a new route to its schedule: Fresno to Yosemite Valley via Highway 41.

 

Buses make five round-trips daily, picking-up passengers at the Greyhound and Amtrak stations, the Fresno Airport, CSU Fresno, and the Highway 145 Park and Ride. Stops are made at the Coarsegold Historic Village, the Oakhurst Best Western, and Fish Camp’s Tenaya Lodge on the way to Yosemite Valley.

 

Tickets can be purchased on the bus with cash, Visa, MasterCard, or Discover. Or pre-purchase your tickets at various local outlets. One way tickets from Fresno to Yosemite Valley are $15 or $30 round trip. Reduced fares are available for seniors (62+), children (12 and under without an adult paid fare), and persons with disabilities. Your YARTS ticket includes admission to the park, as well as one free child ride (12 and under) per adult ticket purchased.

 

YARTS also has bus service to Yosemite Valley from Merced, Mammoth Lakes and Sonora. For a complete list of schedules and fares, visit the YARTS website.
