Yellowstone National Park

Yellowstone National Park is a nearly 3,500-sq.-mile wilderness recreation area atop a volcanic hot spot. Mostly in Wyoming, the park spreads into parts of Montana and Idaho too. Yellowstone features dramatic canyons, alpine rivers, lush forests, hot springs, and gushing geysers, including its most famous, Old Faithful.

2

West Thumb Geyser Basin

First in this section of the park is the West Thumb Geyser Basin, one of Yellowstone's largest geyser basins which features some truly remarkable geothermal features.

3

Shoshone Lake

Your route takes you next past Shoshone Lake, a lovely secluded little patch of wilderness with a great hiking trail to boot.

4

Old Faithful

Old Faithful, up next, is one of Yellowstone's most famous attractions for a reason. This huge geyser is so reliable it was once referred to as "eternity's timepiece"!

5

Firehole River

You've heard of hot tubs, but how about a hot river? That's exactly what you'll find at Firehole River, a river naturally heated by a nearby hot spring.

6

Grand Prismatic Spring

Then you'll be able to park and see Grand Prismatic up close. It's a staggeringly huge hot spring with rings of shocking color encircling it. This is one of Yellowstone's can't-miss attractions!

7

Fountain Paint Pot

Next up is the Fountain Paint Pot, a wonderfully colorful mud pot which is constantly burbling and rearranging itself thanks to the volcanic power underneath it.

8

West Yellowstone Visitor Information Center

You'll see the West Entrance Visitor Information Center if entering the park via the town of West Yellowstone.

9

10

Artists Paintpots

Your route takes you next to the Artist's Paint Pots, another set of colorful mud pots featuring a boardwalk which takes you past not only the paint pots, but also a bunch of small geysers as well. This is a must-see spot.

11

Norris Geyser Basin

The next geyser basin you'll reach is the Norris Geyser Basin, the oldest, hottest geyser basin in Yellowstone, with temperatures measured up to 459 degrees below the surface!

12

Swan Lake Flats

Up next are the Swan Lake Flats. These aren't just a great place to spot wildlife, they're also the birthplace of one of Yellowstone's eight wolf packs!

13

Mammoth Hot Springs

After that, you'll see Mammoth Hot Springs, one of Yellowstone's most picturesque features. But these terraced hot springs aren't just perfect for photos--they're also a huge draw for the local elk population!

14

Boiling River

If entering from the north entrance, you'll pass another heated river called the Boiling River. Don't worry about the name, though--it's actually quite a pleasant temperature!

15

Roosevelt Arch

The Roosevelt Arch is a rusticated triumphal arch at the north entrance to Yellowstone National Park in Gardiner, Montana, United States. Constructed under the supervision of the US Army at Fort Yellowstone, its cornerstone was laid down by President Theodore Roosevelt in 1903.

18

Wraith Falls

Just across from Undine Falls is a trailhead leading to the 80-foot Wraith Falls, another of Yellowstone's nearly 350 waterfalls!

19

Continuing on, you'll arrive at Inspiration Point, the most popular of the overlooks along Yellowstone's Grand Canyon. The vista here is simply unmatched anywhere else in the park.

23

Up next is Hayden Valley, which offers a glimpse into the past. Though it's a lush green valley today, it was once at the bottom of a lake!

24

Cody

Those entering from the east will enter through the park's East Entrance in Cody.

25

Yellowstone Lake

Finally, you'll arrive at Yellowstone Lake, the largest high elevation lake in North America. This pristine lake is too cold to swim in, but it makes the perfect place for a picnic or even a boat ride!

В Йеллоустоуне есть впечатляющие каньоны, альпийские реки, густые леса, горячие источники и бурлящие гейзеры, в том числе самый известный — Старый Верный.

102

105

Река Огненная дыра

Вы слышали о джакузи, но как насчет горячей реки? Это именно то, что вы найдете на реке Файрхол, реке, которая естественным образом нагревается близлежащим горячим источником.

106

Большая призматическая пружина

Тогда вы сможете припарковаться и увидеть Grand Prismatic вблизи. Это ошеломляюще огромный горячий источник с кольцами шокирующего цвета, окружающими его. Это одна из достопримечательностей Йеллоустона, которую нельзя пропустить!

110

Художники

Ваш маршрут приведет вас к горшкам с краской художника, еще одному набору красочных глиняных горшков с дощатым настилом, который проведет вас мимо не только горшков с краской, но и группы небольших гейзеров. Это место, которое обязательно нужно увидеть.

111

Бассейн Норрис Гейзер

Следующий бассейн гейзеров, который вы достигнете, — это бассейн гейзеров Норрис, самый старый и самый горячий бассейн гейзеров в Йеллоустоне, температура которого измеряется до 459 градусов ниже поверхности!

Если вы войдете с северного входа, вы пройдете еще одну нагретую реку, называемую Кипящей рекой. Не беспокойтесь о названии — на самом деле это довольно приятная температура!

115

Арка Рузвельта

Арка Рузвельта — рустированная триумфальная арка у северного входа в Йеллоустонский национальный парк в Гардинере, штат Монтана, США. Построенный под наблюдением армии США в форте Йеллоустоун, его краеугольный камень был заложен президентом Теодором Рузвельтом в 1903 году.

116

117

Водопад Ундина

Далее идет водопад Ундина, 60-футовый водопад, названный в честь фей из немецкого фольклора.

118

Призрачный водопад

Прямо напротив водопада Ундина находится тропа, ведущая к 80-футовому Призрачному водопаду, еще одному из почти 350 водопадов Йеллоустона!

119

Ламар Вэлли

По дороге вы проедете долину Ламар. Эта долина — лучшее место в Йеллоустоуне, где можно увидеть культовую дикую природу парка. Вы почти наверняка увидите здесь бизонов, и, возможно, вам даже повезет, и вы увидите неуловимых волков!

120

Гора Уошберн

Гора Уошберн высотой 10 243 фута — выдающаяся горная вершина хребта Уошберн в Йеллоустонском национальном парке, штат Вайоминг. Пик был назван в 1870 году в честь Генри Д. Уошберна, руководителя экспедиции Уошберн-Лэнгфорд-Доан.

121

Район деревни Каньон

Далее вы пройдете через Каньон-Виллидж, странный полугород, где многие рабочие Йеллоустона живут во время работы в парке. Он предлагает весело взглянуть на то, на что похожа жизнь сотрудников парка!

122

Точка вдохновения

Продолжая, вы прибудете в Inspiration Point, самую популярную смотровую площадку вдоль Гранд-Каньона Йеллоустона. Вид здесь просто не имеет себе равных нигде в парке.

123

Хейден Вэлли

Далее идет Хейден-Вэлли, которая предлагает заглянуть в прошлое. Хотя сегодня это пышная зеленая долина, когда-то она была на дне озера!

124

Коди

Те, кто входит с востока, войдут через восточный вход в парк в Коди.

125

Йеллоустонское озеро

Наконец, вы прибудете к озеру Йеллоустоун, самому большому высокогорному озеру в Северной Америке. В этом нетронутом озере слишком холодно, чтобы купаться, но оно идеально подходит для пикника или даже прогулки на лодке!
