Jackson Travel Tips

  • Who can match this backdrop? Yellowstone National Park is to the north, wild and remote Wind River Range over Togwotee Pass to the east, and the Tetons are smack dab in front of you. If there's anything you want to do in the outdoors, you can do it here.
  • Come winter check out the high red cliffs near Slide Lake at the end of the Gros Ventre River Road. More than 70 miles of groomed cross-country, snowmobiling, and snowshoe trails can be accessed in this wildlife-rich region, including the Continental Divide Snowmobile Trail.
  • A number of balloon companies operate in Jackson. Each offers slightly different flight options. The Wyoming Balloon Company floats guests above the Bridger-Teton forest, a working ranch, and the Snake River—and salutes the flight with a champagne toast.
  • To explore the rural landscape north of Teton Village and its spectacular mountain vies, take the largely paved path following Highway 390 from the mouth of Granite Canyon to the town of Wilson ten miles south.
  • Though the Granite Creek Road south of Hoback Junction on Highway 191/189 is ungroomed and shared with skiers and snowmobilers, it's worth traversing in order to reach the hot springs at the end of the ten-mile road.
