What can I see and do in Grand Teton National Park?
- Viewpoints: As you drive down either the inner or outer park road in Grand Teton Park, stop at a number of key viewpoint areas. Oxbow Bend is ideal for viewing wildlife, especially at dawn or dusk. The Snake River viewpoint is one of the most photographed in the park.
- Mormon Row: Towards the southern end of the park, Mormon Row offers a lot of history and great views.
- Hiking Trails: Trails lead up just about every canyon. From the most popular hike to Hidden Falls to the most epic along the Teton Crest Trail to the less busy Paintbrush Canyon, you can find any length trail for any ability.
- Scenic Float Trip: Hop on a large raft and look for wildlife and take in the views on a scenic float trip on the Snake River in the heart of Grand Teton Park.
- Jenny Lake Boat Trip: During the summer months, take the Jenny Lake Boat Shuttle across the lake for easy access to Hidden Falls and Cascade Canyon. Scenic lake cruises are also available.
- Camping and Lodging: There are six campgrounds and eight lodges within the park. Grand Teton campsites usually fill up in the summer months, so make sure to arrive early.
- Winter Activities: Ranger led snowshoe walks are a park highlight in the winter. But if you want to get out on your own, enjoy cross country skiing to Jenny Lake or follow your own snowshoe trail to Taggart Lake. The nearby National Elk Refuge offers sleigh rides and of course the skiing at Jackson Hole Mountain Resort is unbeatable.
