Grand Teton National Park
Visit the Grand Teton National Park before getting to the main point of our route. This place is also a nature reserve, same as Yellowstone. There are no geysers here, but there are beautiful mountain landscapes and wildlife. Spend a day at this place to fully enjoy the beauties of the Teton Mountain Range and the Jackson Hole valley.

Go to the store in the morning. If you haven't had breakfast at the hotel, buy some food, perhaps ready-made, to eat before departure. Also, take some food and plenty of water for the day, as there could be no places to eat on the road. You can also have a nice picnic in the national park, in the fresh air!

The National Elk Refuge in Jackson Hole was created in 1912 to preserve part of the animals' traditional winter habitat.
Today, thousands of animals winter in the refuge. Elks come here from high meadows in autumn, usually after the first snow, and stay here until spring. One of the most popular ways to explore a refuge is to take a ride on a sleigh. Tours that take place from mid-December to early April last for about an hour and offer seeing animals. When there is enough food, elk go to their usual habitats - 30 percent to Grand Teton National Park, 30 percent to Gros Ventre, 25 percent to Yellowstone National Park and 15 percent to Teton Valley. So, you can see no elk here in the warm season, but you can enjoy the stunning landscape of the valley.

Towering above the valley, pristine lakes and alpine landscape, the Teton Range is a monument to people fought to protect it. These are the mountains from which the creation of the Grand Teton National Park began.
Open year-round, the park provides visitors with a variety of outdoor activities, including wildlife watching, photography, kayaking, fishing, hiking and cycling. Most travelers come to the park in summer. At this time of year there is the opportunity to explore the wildlife. Bison, elk, bears and bighorn sheep live here. In the autumn, Grand Teton turns into one of the most picturesque places on the planet. Stunning shades in the landscape of the park provide the opportunity to make great shots. A winter stay will also be full of emotions. You can ski, walk on snowshoes guided by the caretaker, or go explore the snow-covered roads and trails. Spring is a beautiful and quiet season. This season is the migration of wild animals. When the temperature starts to rise, moose move from the National Elk Refuge to the park, and the buffalo and deer begin to move to the summer grounds.

The day comes to an end, and it's time to go to the hotel to continue the journey in the morning, in the light. Take a shower, make yourself comfortable in your bed and explore the route for tomorrow, check it for gas stations on the way to avoid having the empty tank.
