Yosemite Valley, California
Description

Stunning viewsGreat workoutFull day or half day hikeAmazing sunset, if brave enough
Get there early for this one, it took us about 4-5 hours, but talking to people on the trail claiming they were on their 6th hour up the falls. This is a great hike, truly spectacular view of the Yosemite Valley. We did this hike in the winter so it was a bit chilly up the first few hours, then as the sun came up so did our temperature. This was definitely a long steep hike but it is totally doable for your average hiker!
The whole way up I took pictures because the trail is that great. Once you reach the top, you'll be greatly rewarded by such an amazing view. If you're up to it, stay the night up there, wildlife is scarce because of the altitude.
