It's more than just a viewpoint; it's an experience that defines Yosemite.
Lower Yosemite Fall
Experience the raw power and beauty of Lower Yosemite Fall, the final cascade in Yosemite's iconic waterfall system. Standing near its base, especially during spring's peak flow, prepare to be enveloped in a refreshing mist as the water plunges 320 feet with thunderous force. The paved loop trail offers multiple perspectives of both Upper and Lower Yosemite Falls and Yosemite Creek, enriched by interpretive exhibits detailing the natural and cultural history. More than just a scenic stop, it's an immersive encounter with Yosemite's lifeblood.

It also provides a stunning view of Cathedral Rocks. More than just a photo opportunity, it's a chance to connect with the heart of Yosemite's climbing legacy and marvel at nature's artistry.

Horsetail Fall (Firefall)
