At 600 ft, Bridal Veil Falls ranks among the tallest waterfalls in the United States — a tiered waterfall in Alaska. It ranks #15 by height among the waterfalls in this guide.

Its water comes from tributary of the Lowe River (Keystone Canyon). You'll find it in Chugach Census Area, Alaska.

This is a roadside waterfall: visible from a road, parking area, or a walk of a few hundred feet. Base a visit out of Valdez, the closest town.

When to go: Late spring through summer (snowmelt-fed); ice-climbing destination in winter. Like most waterfalls, Bridal Veil Falls runs highest after snowmelt or heavy rain and can thin out in late summer, so it's worth checking recent streamflow and the land manager's conditions page before a long drive.
