A multi-cascade waterfall most Yosemite visitors never reach, on the Chilnualna Falls Trail in Wawona. 8.4 miles, 2,500 feet, away from the valley crowds.
There’s a trail sign at the end of the parking lot. Walk up the paved road for a short distance.
This reverse-view of the hike shows how the trail climbs up from Wawona to the falls. The granite dome on the left is the Wawona Dome which you’ll see on the hike.
The bad news is that you climb all the way to the falls. The good news is that, compared to other Yosemite hikes, the hike is not too steep.
