Yellowstone National Park is loaded with many geothermal features along with a myriad of animals, mountains, plant life and waterfalls.
Yellowstone has so many that Lonely Planet has picked out the ten best waterfalls within the park.
They begin with:
Located primarily in Wyoming, Yellowstone National Park sprawls its 2.2 million acres of spectacular and wild beauty into parts of Montana and Idaho, too, and is one of the largest parks in the US National Park Service.
This hotspot of geothermal activity (the most of any place on the planet!) is home to such iconic sights as Old Faithful geyser and Mammoth Hot Springs. Established in 1872, Yellowstone National Park is also the oldest national park in the United States.
In addition to geysers that blow their lids on the regular and pools that bubble with 50 shades of blue (and very dangerous) beauty, Yellowstone is a place with cold water in abundance, too – cascades, curtains and veils of it gush down in varying intensities all over the park. So if you’ve come to chase waterfalls, you’re in a great spot for it here.
