Embark on an easy hike along the Carlon Falls Trail, a scenic route spanning 2.9 miles (4.6 km) with a gentle elevation gain of 144 feet (44 metres). You can expect to complete this journey in about 1 hour and 13 minutes. As you follow the path, you will find yourself winding through a shaded forest of towering pines and sturdy oaks, with the South Fork of the Tuolumne River flowing nearby. The terrain offers a mix of smooth sections and parts with exposed roots and rocks, adding a touch of natural variety to your walk. The trail culminates at the beautiful Carlon Falls, a multi-tiered waterfall approximately twenty to thirty feet high, offering a refreshing sight.
Planning your visit to the Carlon Falls Trail is straightforward, as its trailhead is uniquely situated outside Yosemite National Park, within the Stanislaus National Forest. This means you can access this lovely waterfall without incurring the usual Yosemite entrance fee. The pool at the base of the falls transforms into a popular swimming spot once the spring runoff subsides, providing a cool respite on warmer days. Consider visiting during the late spring or early summer to experience the falls at their fullest and enjoy the swimming opportunities.
This trail offers a distinct advantage for those looking to explore the region without entering the main national park gates. Beyond the main falls, you can discover smaller pools upstream, perfect for wading or enjoying a quiet picnic amidst nature. The Carlon Falls Trail provides a rewarding outdoor experience, blending accessible hiking with the natural beauty of a multi-tiered waterfall and its surrounding forest environment.
