Snake River Overlook.

Grand Teton National Park, nestled in Wyoming's beautiful Teton Range, is a breathtaking destination for anyone seeking an outdoor adventure and beautiful views of nature. With majestic peaks, flowing rivers, and abundant wildlife, the park offers awe-inspiring views throughout your entire journey. I pretty much just said, "Wow" during the entire duration of our trip. Visitors can hike scenic trails or simply bask in the serenity of this pristine wilderness during their visit, creating lasting memories for the whole family.

Dipping our feet in Jenny Lake.

Jenny Lake, nestled in the heart of Grand Teton National Park, is a beautiful mountain lake that attracts visitors with its stunning beauty. Jenny Lake offers a serene and tranquil atmosphere. Its crystal-clear waters reflect the majestic peaks of the Teton Range, creating a picture-perfect backdrop for outdoor adventures. Whether you choose to hike the scenic trails that encircle the lake or simply walk down to its shores to relax on its pebble beaches, Jenny Lake promises a memorable and awe-inspiring experience in the heart of nature. We elected to just walk down and dip our toes in the water, which was a prefect expenditure of time.

Jackson Lake Lodge was a perfect retreat to stop for lunch and use the restroom while we were in Grand Teton. After lunch, we visited one of the gift shops and found that the area sells a variety of huckleberry flavored items including jams, candies, and even desserts (my daughter ordered a huckleberry milkshake!) They even offer horseback riding from Jackson Lake Lodge as well.

Flowing through the heart of Grand Teton National Park, the Snake River winds its way amidst this scenic landscape. It offers remarkable opportunities for outdoor enthusiasts, such as scenic float trips, fishing excursions, and wildlife viewing. Immerse yourself in the tranquil beauty of the Snake River and experience the natural wonders of Grand Teton National Park.

Oxbow Bend Overlook along the Snake River.

Oxbow Bend is a picturesque bend in the Snake River that offers panoramic views of the majestic Teton Range reflected in the calm waters. Oxbow Bend is a peaceful stop within the park that showcases the harmony between the river, mountains, and wildlife, leaving visitors with a deep appreciation for nature's wonders. Be sure to stop by here to take in a view of the river, and maybe even stop in to dip your feet in the water.
