Specimen Falls

Specimen Falls is inside Yellowstone National Park, a U.S. National Park managed by the National Park Service. Conditions, road status, trail closures, and reservation requirements are published directly on the park's NPS page — check it before driving in, especially in winter or during major weather events.

Entrance fee: $35 per vehicle. Per vehicle, valid 7 days. Combined Yellowstone + Grand Teton pass available. An America the Beautiful annual pass ($80) covers entrance to all NPS units and is worth it after ~3 park visits per year.

Before you go: check current conditions with the appropriate land manager — state parks department, U.S. Forest Service ranger district, or National Park Service unit. Trail access, parking, water levels, and seasonal closures all vary. Several waterfalls in our database are seasonal and may run dry between mid-summer and the next rainy season.
