Atv Adventures
Venture deeper into Bridger-Teton National Forest by traversing Forest Service roadways and OTV trails on an ATV or similar machine. On four wheels and with high clearance, ATVs make exploring the less-maintained roads of Jackson Hole much more doable. Choose from a guided adventure or rent your own machine for the day.

Biking
From road biking to mountain biking, there are plenty of areas to do both in Jackson Hole, and to cater to those experiences to your experience level. Jackson boasts a vast public pathways system that makes for easy, scenic biking excursions between Jackson, Teton Village, and the community of Wilson. Grand Teton National Park also has bike-friendly pathways throughout, except for the stretch of gravel road between Teton Village and Moose Junction. The most popular destinations for mountain bikers are the trails switchbacking Teton Pass, the mountain bike park in Teton Village at Jackson Hole Mountain Resort, and the Cache Creek drainage in east Jackson. The communities of Teton Village, Wilson, and Jackson all have bike rental options in the close vicinity to each of these trail areas. Dornan’s, in Moose, can facilitate bike rentals to those who’d like to explore the National Park on two wheels. Bike tours are available for both types of biking if you’d prefer to leave the

Hiking
Easily the most popular summer activity in Jackson, there are so many trails in Jackson and the nearby National Parks it would be impossible to explore them all in just one visit. And while there are trails located all over Jackson Hole—near town, on Teton Pass, and in Teton Village—if you only have an afternoon or a couple of days to hike, then we recommend heading straight to the trails in Grand Teton National Park. Find some of our favorites list below.
Phelps Lake and Death Canyon at the
Laurance S. Rockefeller Preserve
Take an easy to moderate hike around Phelps Lake or to its overlook, or opt for something longer into Death Canyon. Start from the Laurance Rockefeller Preserve visitor center and parking area south from the Moose Visitor’s Center.
Granite Canyon
This area offers moderate to difficult hikes, depending on the duration. For an all-day challenge (and large elevation gain), hikers can take Granite Canyon all the way to the top of the Jackson Hole Mountain Resort Aerial Tram.
Surprise & Amphitheater Lakes
Difficult due to the elevation gain, this hike is a Jackson favorite. The round trip hike to both lakes is ten miles, but the climb covers 3,000 vertical feet in just five. Allow yourself plenty of time by getting an early start.
Bradley & Taggart Lakes
A mellow option in southern Grand Teton National Park, this area is usually less busy than Jenny Lake. The round trip hike to both lakes is just about five miles, with only 500 feet of elevation gain. The parking lot is located 2.5 miles from the Moose Visitor Center.
Leigh, Bearpaw & Trapper Lakes
Ready for stunning views of the Tetons? Then this is the hike for you. Commencing at the String Lake parking lot, this straightforward and flat hike travels north and offers views of the sheer north faces of the most popular Teton peaks.
Jenny Lake and Hidden Falls
Easily the most famous hike in Grand Teton National Park, hikers can loop around Jenny Lake and continue on to Hidden Falls, or they can cut down on the hike by riding the boat shuttle across the lake. Great for families with young children, this hike is a Jackson Hole classic.
Horseback Riding
Saddle up, because there isn’t a more western activity than spending an hour, afternoon or multiple days on a horse in Wyoming. With a long list of guides and ranches ready to escort riders of all experience levels out on the trails, there’s no shortage of opportunities to get in the saddle while visiting Jackson Hole. Take your pick from rides that venture into the National Forests, or those with Teton views.

Jackson Hole Mountain Resort Activities
While its claim to fame is as a skiing destination, from top to bottom, Jackson Hole Mountain Resort is simultaneously a mecca for summer entertainment. From scenic rides on the gondola or Aerial Tram to the via ferrate, and from hiking and biking trails to a disc golf course, there are endless ways to spend an hour, an afternoon, or an entire day at Jackson Hole Mountain Resort. Plus, parents will appreciate those attractions catered to younger guests, including the climbing wall, pop jets, and a bungee trampoline.
