Lookout Point

Lookout Point is a stunning panoramic overlook on the north rim of the Grand Canyon of the Yellowstone River. From here you can see a view of the 308-foot Lower Falls tier of Yellowstone Falls. You can either drive right up to Lookout Point or visit the overlook as a stop on North Rim Trail. The travel distance to the point is 0.15 miles round trip with 25 feet of elevation gain. Lookout Point faces west up a deep canyon in the direction of a white gushing waterfall flanked by orange vertical walls. Out of sight upriver from Lower Falls there's a shorter upper tier of Yellowstone Falls. To get there, from a parking area bordering North Rim Trail pick up the walkway out to Lookout Point. Thirteen steps lead down to the lookout, making it an accessible viewpoint to reach. This attraction is a must-see YNP attraction!
