Entering Yosemite National Park via Route 140 from Mariposa, Wildcat Falls is basically the first waterfall you will cross, making it a good place to stretch your legs and get that first waterfall fix. Wildcat Falls is located west of Yosemite Valley, just above El Portal Road (known as Route 140 outside the park). To walk to the waterfall, start from a turnout on the north side of the road, west of the Cascades Parking Area.
