The Fairy Falls trail is basically flat, and your guide will lead you across the Firehole River and into the Midway Geyser Basin. The first part of the trail follows the river, past a turnoff to an overlook of Grand Prismatic Spring up a little hill. This is not generally included on our Fairy Falls hike, but please let us know if you would like to do it as an add-on to your hike.
We’ll continue past the back side of Grand Prismatic, before turning off onto another trail which will lead us to Fairy Falls. When we get to the waterfall, you’ll be able to explore for a while, before we cross over a creek and make our way along a trail to Imperial Geyser.
Although its eruptions are not that high, Imperial Geyser is in a beautiful setting, with a blue green pool surrounding it, and colorful bacteria mats running in a stream off the pool. We’ll follow the stream until we see Spa Geyser, and then continue hiking on a loop trail back to Fairy Falls.
The hike is approximately three miles (4.8 kilometres) long.
We have another hike which also visits Fairy Falls, but does not go to Imperial Geyser.

If there are more than six people, a dedicated guide and vehicle will transport you all the way.
