Whether youโre road-tripping through the park or lacing up your boots for adventure, here are the must-see landmarks that define Grand Tetonโs stunning landscape:
๐ 1. Grand Teton Peak
The star of the show โ towering at 13,775 feet! You donโt have to summit to admire it; catch its reflection at sunrise from Schwabacher Landing or Jenny Lake for a magical moment.
๐ 2. Jenny Lake
One of the parkโs crown jewels. Ride the shuttle boat across or hike the shore โ and donโt miss Hidden Falls and Inspiration Point on the far side. A favorite for photography and peaceful picnics.
๐ 3. Mormon Row Historic District
Snap the iconic shot of the Moulton Barns with the Tetons rising dramatically behind. This historic homestead captures both natural and cultural beauty โ a photographerโs dream at sunrise!
๐ 4. Schwabacher Landing
A serene, lesser-known spot along the Snake River where the Tetons mirror perfectly in the still water. A top pick for wildlife watching and golden hour photos.
๐ 5. Oxbow Bend
A classic roadside stop! Here the Snake River bends with the Tetons in the background โ especially magical in fall when the cottonwoods glow yellow and gold.
๐ 6. Signal Mountain Summit Road
Drive (or bike!) up this scenic road for panoramic views over Jackson Hole and the distant mountains โ a great way to see the scope of the park without a strenuous hike.
๐ 7. Jackson Lake
The parkโs largest lake offers stunning vistas, kayaking, and peaceful shoreline walks. Head to Colter Bay Village for visitor services and relaxing lakefront strolls.
๐ Travel Tip:
Grab a park map early, and plan your route around lighting โ sunrise and sunset are peak times for iconic views! And always keep your eyes peeled for moose, elk, and bald eagles
