    Hiking

    It is quite humid due to the waterfall. Great place for pictures.

    Hiking

    The Lower Falls are easy to reach via a short climb if you want to avoid the long and tedious road to the Upper Falls.

    Mountaineering

    When Yosemite Falls is strong in spring or earlier summer, you will become wet after this point.
