Away from the masses
Home to more waterfalls and lakes than The Lower Lakes, perhaps the best part about The Upper Lakes is that it offers (some) opportunities to get away from the masses. (The Lower Lakes boasts the biggest falls in the park, so maybe that's why it's more crowded in that area?). Anyway, I prefer the Upper Lakes part b/c there are places to have a quiet picnic (yes, even midday on a weekend--in autumn, mind you, but still), and there are hiking trails off the main trails (so, away from the falls, but also away from the herds). Best accessed by Gate 2, but you can also enter the park at Gate 1 and hop on the long ferry, which is a nice ride across Kozjak Lake.

Amazing colours and views, be prepared to walk.
We rushed the walk, boat, however it was worth every minute. Beautiful colours. The walk way is wooden slats, uneven at times. Allow plenty of time, we had a guide that knew the area so well. Photos were amazing.

Beautiful falls
Many people on the path and we were there end of season. I can imagine a much more crowded walk during busier times. In those times you would have to wait to get into better view areas.
