Why go
The reservoir trail crosses footbridges close to a powerful seasonal waterfall on the north wall. Use Wapama Falls to connect Wapama Falls's defining feature with Hetch Hetchy shoreline. A pause at Wapama Falls works best when you compare Wapama Falls's immediate foreground with the neighboring terrain before continuing.
