Lamar Valley

Nicknamed "America's Serengeti," the Lamar Valley is Yellowstone's premier wildlife viewing destination. This sweeping grassland, carved by ancient glaciers and the meandering Lamar River, provides a vital habitat for the park's most iconic species. Visitors can observe vast herds of bison, packs of wolves, grizzly bears, elk, pronghorn, and countless birds from the comfort of their vehicle or roadside pullouts. Dawn and dusk offer particularly magical moments when the valley comes alive with animal activity.

Undine Falls

Tucked along the scenic Mammoth-Tower road, Undine Falls cascades gracefully in three distinct tiers over ancient volcanic cliffs. This 60-foot waterfall, named after mythical water spirits, offers a perfect roadside stop for photographers and nature enthusiasts. The falls' multiple steps create an enchanting display as Lava Creek tumbles through a rugged basalt canyon, especially dramatic during spring snowmelt. A convenient pullout provides excellent viewing of this hidden gem. Option to hike/snowshoe approximately 1 mile to get to the viewpoint on the other side of the fall.
