Choose Your Way

A self-guided audio tour of the main park grounds is available to visitors, for free. You may take this tour either through the official NPS app or by using the OnCell call in number that is listed on the guide signs throughout the park. Park staff can provide some gudiance but here are more details about how to use one of the two features.

Use the Official NPS App

You can download the free official NPS App and take the audio tour from there, without calling a number. You should use the regular cell phone "Stop" signs around the grounds (that contain the dial-in number for OnCell) as a guide. Once you've accessed the app, look for our park and then select the "Self-Guided Tours" tab to see the audio tours. Guests can begin the audio tour, as well as navigate through each stop, in the app. Currently, there are no cell stops inside the Muir home, but rangers or volunteers can answer any questions you have. The first stop is located right behind the visitor center.

Or Use the OnCell Audio Phone Number and Guides

OnCell is a free dial-in number. You will see the phone number on the designated "Stop" signs throughout the grounds. The first stop is located right behind the visitor center.

Quick Guide For Audio Tour:

There are two options to take the self-guided audio tour:

1. NPS App: Download the free app from one of the links, below, and experience the tour by first searching for our park name, then when found, look in the "Self-Guided Tours" tab. Guests will see a prompt to start the audio tour when they are ready. This app allows you to pause and restart during the tour.

2. OnCell call-in number: Guests may also choose to call the phone number on the "Stop" signs around the grounds. The tour is free, other than regular carrier rates that you may have. The call-in number does not have a pause feature on individual stops.

Tips
1. Portable headphones or earbuds are great to bring for the audio tour but not necessary.
2. Pre-download the NPS app before you arrive.
3. The first "Stop" begins behind the visitor center.
4. We are adding new audio tours over time. Check back often.
