Upper Falls View

Upper Falls View is a spectacular viewpoint in Yellowstone National Park, offering views of the 33-meter waterfall that marks the beginning of the Grand Canyon of the Yellowstone.

The waterfall cascades over rugged volcanic rock, creating a powerful cascade surrounded by multicolored canyon walls in shades of orange, brown, and green. The mist rising above the water often creates rainbows, and the viewpoint at the edge allows you to stand right next to the river's current. Less crowded than the nearby Lower Falls, it offers an intimate and personal view of the power of nature.
