There is nothing as pleasant to passionate hikers as reaching a spectacular, awe-inspiring waterfall at the end of a strenuous hike. While so many country falls are part of popular parks and are fairly easily accessible, getting to some of the others is more challenging and requires experience and skills. From several fantastic falls in Yosemite Park to a lush oasis at the bottom of the Grand Canyon, these waterfall hikes are among the favorite hiking destinations in the United States.
