About this activity

There are some pretty amazing states in the USA, but when it comes to amazing national parks and landscapes, it's hard to beat Grand Teton National Park!

Grand Teton is located in the northwest of Wyoming, and has some of the most amazing landscapes you will see! There are the majestic mountains which actually led to the creation of the park itself. There are over 200 miles of trails that can take you on some pretty incredible adventures, and there are lakes and rivers to swim in and float down!

Four million people visit Grand Teton National Park every year, so it must be doing something right!

The Visitors Centers are a great place to start your adventure in the national park. There are actually 6 across the park, and each one can give you all the information you need on your stay there. There are interpretive walks and talks that you can find out about, as well as any programs and events that might be happening in the park. You won't want to miss those! 

Across the year, the park rangers have a number of activities that are perfect for the family to get involved with. They are great for kids too as some have special children's activities!

Each season brings something different. From the wildlife in Spring, to the geological and historical experiences in summer, to bear safety in fall and snowshoeing in winter - there are PLENTY of topics for you to immerse yourselves in! (and it's a great learning experience for the kids!)

If you are looking for a very nature based day out filled with outdoor adventure, Grand Teton National Park is the place to be! Don't forget your camera - you will need it!
