Discover the most magical spots to pitch your tent or park your rig on your next Grand Teton National Park adventure.
Camp against the backdrop of the jagged Teton Range.
Often visited in tandem with neighboring Yellowstone National Park, Wyoming’s Grand Teton National Park protects the Teton Mountain Range and its surrounding flora and fauna. Measuring some 310,000 acres, the park is significantly smaller than Yellowstone but no less impressive, offering mountain views and the chance to see all sorts of wildlife. Popular summertime activities include hiking, boating, trout fishing, mountaineering, and backpacking, while winter is ideal for snowshoeing and cross-country skiing. Most campgrounds are only open during the relatively short snow-free season, but backcountry sites are available even in the coldest winter months.
Grand Teton National Park is a summer destination, with highs in the upper 70s in July and August. September weather is warm with fewer crowds, but arriving any later than that puts you at risk of cold temperatures and snow. Large portions of the park, including major summits and the areas around the Snake and Buffalo Fork rivers) close from December through March or April due to seasonal weather conditions.
