This short but steep hike offers unique perspectives of this iconic lake that is normally only seen from above, and you’ll have the entire lake to yourself!
Fairy Falls is a hidden gem found by hiking past Wahkeena Falls, a popular waterfall close to Portland. This short hike is a great option to beat the crowds.
Rainbow Bridge is one of the largest arches accessible by foot or boat. It stands almost 300 feet wide and tall! Getting there by boat makes it a short and easy 1.3 mile hike to see the arch, and I love the 50 mile boat ride up the gorgeous Lake Powell.
The panoramic view from Sentinel Dome is one of the best in Yosemite. You'll get a bird's eye view of large rock faces and thundering waterfalls all just a short hike from Glacier Point Road. This hike is a great way to enjoy the incredible views without the crowds of Glacier Point.
