#### Follow a trail that weaves around dense forests to viewpoints of a magnificent waterfall. Spot wildlife including bears and birds of prey.

Upper Yellowstone Falls is one of several waterfalls that decorate the Grand Canyon of the Yellowstone. Marvel at the rushing water of Upper Yellowstone Falls, which plunges over a cliff into the Yellowstone River. The waterfall rises to a height of 109 feet (33 meters) at the southern edge of the canyon.

See this natural landmark by walking the South Rim Trail, a scenic route that begins on the south side of Chittenden Bridge. The trail takes you amid an area of tall pine trees, through which you can catch glimpses of the river. Stop at Upper Falls View, a lookout that presents the best views of the thundering, milky white water and its verdant surroundings.

Another option is crossing the bridge and following the path to the Brink of the Upper Falls observation deck. Here you get to experience the full force of the falls and river. Varied wild animals inhabit the forests and river valley. Among commonly spotted wildlife are butterflies, coyotes, grizzly bears, ospreys and swallows.

Continue your adventure on the South Rim Trail’s northern section and visit areas that overlook the 308-foot-tall (94-meter) Lower Yellowstone Falls. Sightings of the smaller Crystal Falls are possible, too. Painters and photographers love Artist Point for its panoramic views of the dramatic canyon and distant Lower Yellowstone Falls.

Get closer to Lower Yellowstone Falls by hiking down the 328 steps of the steep Uncle Tom’s Trail. Observe as sunlight and mist from the falls create pretty rainbows. Benches and platforms provide places to rest along the path. Note that this trail may close after heavy rainfall.

Upper Yellowstone Falls is open year-round. It’s about a 10-minute drive south of Canyon Village. Find free parking at Chittenden Bridge and at the trailhead to Brink of the Upper Falls. You can also park at the start of Uncle Tom’s Trail, which offers an alternative entry to the South Rim Trail.

We enjoyed our stay at Anvil Hotel for 5 nights. The room was very clean and towels were replaced daily. It was in a great location within a short walking distance to the town square, restaurants and shopping. We would definitely stay here again on our next trip to Jackson Hole.

Our stay was amazing. The views, day and night, were absolutely breathtaking. The staff was incredibly friendly and helpful, and the entire experience felt truly unique—like a home away from home. We loved the amenities offered; our favorites were the bonfire s’mores, stargazing with the provided telescope, and the sauna. We also really enjoyed the complimentary breakfast. I would recommend this place to anyone—whether you’re planning a family trip, a getaway with friends, or a romantic escape, this is the perfect spot

This is a new place geared towards high end couples. Super friendly staff that goes the extra mile. Rooms are nice with views that do not seem real!!!! Nice restaurant with some really good food. The indoor pool with the windows is amazing. It is a little expensive but there is nothing like it in town.
