Lower Yosemite Falls Trailhead Location

Lower Yosemite Falls Trailhead Location
Original artwork by Heinrich Berann

The lower falls trailhead isn't hard to find; it's adjacent to a shuttle stop and directly across the street from the Yosemite Valley Lodge. Just a few steps into the hike you'll encounter this view of Yosemite Falls to reassure you that you're on the right path. Short walks to sights like this tend to attract big crowds during spring runoff, but showing up near dawn or dusk will increase your chances of solitude.

In case you're on a small screen and clicking on the map doesn't pop up a larger version, here's a direct link to one.
