Join us for a one-of-a-kind guided tour of Yosemite Valley’s falls. Start with the classics: Stand in the spray beside Vernal Fall, spot rainbows dancing in Bridalveil Fall, marvel at the roaring cascades of Yosemite Falls, and more.

As you explore the grandeur of springtime in Yosemite through moderate hikes, your naturalist guide will point out hidden cascades and rivulets while sharing detailed knowledge of the geologic and cultural history, climatic conditions and biodiversity that make Yosemite’s waterfalls so special.

Before the trip, get to know the iconic Yosemite Falls in this Yosemite Nature Notes video, and by viewing our live Yosemite Falls webcam. Get inspired by reading up on donor-funded restoration work to protect sensitive habitat at Vernal Fall and improve the trail to Bridalveil Fall. Show mom that you’ve done your homework with thoughtful questions for your guide!
