The Mecca of all climbing, hiking and trekking, Yosemite is one of those mythical, legendary places that is a must-visit for anyone in the area. One of the most popular hikes in Yosemite that must be conquered is the Mist Trail. The trail begins at Happy Isles in Yosemite Valley and follows the Merced River, past Vernal Fall and Emerald Pool and finally ending at Nevada Fall. At Vernal Fall, witness the splendour of the rare circular rainbow, as the mist from the magnificent falls blanket you. Take a dip in Emerald Pool, so named for its calm waters shimmering the colour of emeralds. Finally, greet the absolutely breathtaking Nevada Falls. Especially stunning at sunset, watch the falls reflect the changing hues of the landscape, as the setting sun washes Yosemite in an array of vivid colours. This is an experience of a lifetime that should not be missed!
