The Bridalveil Falls Trail is a highly-trafficked 0.9 mile out-and-back hike and is an easy and accessible for anyone visiting Yosemite. Bridalveil Falls is one of the first sights upon entering Yosemite Valley on Southside Drive is well worth the visit. Bridalveil Falls is the result of ancient glaciers that carved out valleys high above Yosemite Valley, thus creating Bridalveil Creek, which spills down as Bridalveil Falls.
