Mariposa-Yosemite Airport (RMY)

Mariposa-Yosemite Airport is a public general aviation airport serving Mariposa County and the western approach to Yosemite National Park. Located about four miles west of downtown Mariposa, it provides an air access point for pilots and private aircraft traveling to California's Sierra Nevada foothills. The airport was constructed in the 1930s and dedicated to the county in 1937. Today it supports recreational flying and light general aviation traffic rather than scheduled airline service, with a single asphalt runway, aircraft tiedowns, hangars, and a public terminal building. The airport sits roughly 47 miles from Yosemite National Park, making it useful for visitors continuing by road into the Yosemite area. Ground transportation options include private vehicles, arranged transfers, rental cars, and regional transit, with the town of Mariposa only a short drive away. Passenger amenities are limited to practical aviation services such as self-serve fuel, aircraft parking, and local maintenance support, so travelers should plan meals, lodging, and onward travel before or after arrival.
