Spot the 3,000-foot (900-meter) southern face of El Capitan on the left side and the tumbling waters of Bridalveil Falls to the right. Miles beyond the pass, the hefty Half Dome cliff strikes an imposing figure. Following the winding roads to Inspiration Point enjoy Yosemite without obstrucle view.

As you traverse the rugged landscape, stop to see the tumbling cascade of Yosemite Falls—the highest waterfall in North America. This towering waterfall is also the world’s fifth tallest waterfall. Water plunges a total of 2,425 feet (739 meters) from top to bottom of Yosemite Falls in three distinct sections: Upper Yosemite Fall (1,430 feet), the middle cascades (675 feet), and Lower Yosemite Fall (320 feet). It flows approximately November through July, with peak flow in late Mar until sometimes in May. You can see Yosemite Falls from numerous places around Yosemite Valley, especially around Yosemite Village and Yosemite Valley Lodge.
