There are many hiking trails in Yosemite National Park. Some of the most spectacular sights I have ever seen come from this valley. There are several hiking trails to choose from, and one of the most famous and popular hiking trails is the Mist Trail, for good reason. The trail includes 2 spectacular waterfalls: the Spring Falls and the Nevada Falls. The best time to visit is in the spring and early summer, the water is rampant. I recommend that the shoes have good traction because some parts of the hike may become very slippery. In addition, any waterproof device definitely comes in handy!
