Top of Nevada Falls Hike

(Yosemite Valley)

About

This very strenuous, seven-mile round-trip hike gains almost 2,000 feet in elevation. Start at Happy Isles Shuttle Stop Number 16 and work your way through the crowds visiting Vernal Falls.  Above Vernal you get a breather, cross the river and resume climbing switchbacks adjacent to Nevada's roar. As you climb the gully, you will be treated to a nice profile of Nevada Falls. Be sure to bring water, and wear a hat as well as comfortable walking shoes or boots. Parts of the trail loop are closed in winter. For your safety, it is recommended that you complete this hike before dark.  Be very careful at the top of Nevada; too many people have been lulled into the gentle water above the falls and ended badly.
