Vernal Falls
Discover the majestic Vernal Fall amid Yosemite's natural splendor.
Vernal Fall is one of the gorgeous sites to see during your visit to the Yosemite National Park. With three individual sets of waterfalls alongside this trail, this hike can be anywhere from 1.5 to 5.5 miles depending on how many falls you wish to see. The mist trail below the falls is a very unique experience where you can witness and experience the raw power of the crashing waters.

When to go
The best time to visit Vernal Fall is during spring and early summer when the water flow is at its peak, creating a spectacular display. Winter brings its own serene beauty, but be prepared for trail closures and icy conditions. Avoid peak tourist seasons to experience the falls with fewer crowds.
