Rustic Falls is a 47-foot falls where Glen Creek ripples over a basalt cliff in the Golden Gate canyon, beside the Grand Loop Road below Bunsen Peak in Yellowstone National Park. The road descends steeply alongside the creek. Park in one of the couple of small pullouts near the falls and view it from beside the road. Space in the pullouts is limited, and viewing means walking along the road edge, so watch for traffic.
