Your expert guide will meet you at the Pavilion next to the Upper Falls Parking Area at 8AM. This is also the staring point for Uncle Tom's Trail. The hike is a 6-mile loop. The hike is along the Canyon Rim, through the forest out to Ribbon Lake, and then past a geyser basin, Clear Lake, and the Wapiti Meadows with big views of the Hayden Valley. If you hike one trail in Yellowstone this is it!

Perfect hike for beginners. This hike has so much to see. Having a guide really makes this enjoyable. I can’t think of another hike in the park with so much in a short 5 mile hike.

The view of the falls and hike along the ridge was great. Our guide did a great job of providing information about many different things we saw along the hike. Also a good explanation of how the park was formed.

If you had never been to yellowstone before, like me and my wife, we highly recommend this tour. Our tour guide Alex was fun and very knowledgable of Yellowstone history. She made the trip really enjoyable, at a good pace for everyone, and she answered pretty much all the questions our group had. Overall, if you had to choose a hike from all the ones offered, I would hands down pick this one. The price is very reasonable and the 6-mile(ish) round loop gives you breathtaking views of the canyon and the falls. Many thanks to Alex for making our time in Yellowstone so memorable!
