Vernal Fall and Nevada Fall via the Mist Trail (Yosemite National Park's DEADLIEST Hike)

The Mist Trail in Yosemite National Park is the top hike in Yosemite, and the second most popular trail in the entire U.S. National Park system. Trek up 600 granite stair steps to your first stop – Vernal Fall. If you survive, continue to Nevada Fall and watch as the beautiful (but deadly) Merced River plunges 2,000 feet from Yosemite's high country. It’s an adventure you won’t forget… but is it for you?

Vernal Fall itself is perhaps the deadliest water feature in Yosemite, and Nevada Fall at nearly twice the height is not far behind – posing deadly serious hazards for the ill-prepared or foolhardy hiker. From the Vernal Fall Footbridge, past the Sierra Mist, to Vernal & Nevada Falls – we reach the junction to Half Dome Cables and Little Yosemite Valley before hiking the John Muir Trail down. Enjoy this exciting tour of Yosemite National Park’s precious landscape and learn how to enjoy your journey on the Mist Trail to the top of Vernal and Nevada falls safely.
