Chilnualna Falls, Multi-tiered waterfall in Yosemite National Park, USA.

Chilnualna Falls is a series of five waterfalls that drop down separate rocky faces, creating a total vertical descent of about 690 feet. The water flows through the cascades from a creek, with each tier positioned at different elevations along the slope.

The falls lie on Chilnualna Creek in the southern section of Yosemite National Park. The name's origin is uncertain: Shirley Sargent recorded that Chilnualna was Paiute for "leaping waters," while a Wawona resident held it meant "many rocks." The trailhead sits at the end of the paved portion of Chilnualna Falls Road in northeastern Wawona.

The name's origin is uncertain: Shirley Sargent recorded that Chilnualna might be Paiute for "leaping waters," while a Wawona resident said it meant "many rocks." The falls are a popular horseback riding destination, and riders still use the trail from Wawona.

The trailhead sits at the end of the paved part of Chilnualna Falls Road in northeastern Wawona, at about 4,000 feet (1,200 m); the main waterfall is reached at roughly 6,200 feet (1,900 m). The route climbs about 2,200 feet over rocky ground, so allow a full day and carry water. The path is slippery after rain.

The third tier is the tallest of the five, a single 300-foot (91 m) drop, while the first is 90–120 feet and the last a 180–210-foot cascade. The name's meaning is uncertain: Shirley Sargent recorded that Chilnualna may be Paiute for "leaping waters," or, per a Wawona resident, "many rocks."
