First vista you see as you enter this massive national park is the majestic peaks of El Kapitan the peak that is a true test of moutaineering skills for the avid climber. Next through the forest you enter the visitor centre of the park which has plenty of facilites. Then you can take various trails that lead you to the... More

Just amazing, the shear fop volume of water and the height was a wow. Great close up and also in the wider setting of the valley

The Lower Falls are approx a 10 minute walk from the main car park & the view you get is amazing considering the little effort needed. Walking across the bridge & feeling the spray off the rocks from the waterfall makes you embrace the nature around you. The Upper Falls takes about 1 hour at least to make it halfway... More

One of the best and oldest hikes in the valley and should not be missed, especially if you want to see another perspective of the valley and its terrific domes and peaks. Many find this hike to be strenuous and I would agree in elevation gain but it is doable for many novice hikers as well. A lot of switch... More

Lower Yosemite Falls is clearly one of the most accessible trails in the park. In fact, it's wheelchair accessible. Prepare for blowing mist during the spring snowmelt. If you are lucky, you may see a black bear wandering in the area!

As an Australian family, we are used to natural settings very different to what we found at Yosemite. The deep dark greens, massive trees, lush meadows, cool grey and white granite walls carved out by glaciers.... it feels strange.... Yet it also feels oddly familiar, as if some deeply buried genetic memory surfaced (our ancestors came from northern Europe) as... More

The small walk around the lower yosemite falls area was gorgeous. I highly recommend going in the morning. We practically had the place to ourselves. The day before we hiked up the strenuous trail to the upper yosemite falls and it was beautiful, this small trail topped it off with wonderful photo opportunities.

We visited the falls on a cloudy day and were rewarded with a nice reflection in the calm water, later we saw the falls on a beautiful blue sky day and it was breath taking. You feel the ground shake from the power of the water. Whether you hike in or just view from the bridge or other viewpoints...this has... More

For a great hike head to the top of Yosemite Falls. The hike is around 7 miles round trip with a 2700 ft elevation. The last mile to the top is the most challenging, but the views are incredible and you can walk across a bridge over the water before it pours over the falls.
