Beschreibung
Be introduced to Grand Teton National Park and the surrounding areas on this half-day tour. Your guide will highlight the flora, fauna, history, and geography that make Jackson Hole unique.
Explore Grand Teton National Park and the National Elk Refuge with a professional naturalist guide. This area is home to thousands of wintering elk, hundreds of bison, bighorn sheep, and an array of bird life.
Our team of highly experienced, knowledgeable guides knows exactly where to take you for the best opportunities for wildlife sightings and the best views. They also have the important skill set of navigating potentially icy/snowy roads, so you can relax and enjoy the experience.
While Wyoming's winters are notoriously cold and snowy, there are still so many amazing experiences to be had. This is why Jackson Hole Wildlife Safaris offers half-day morning and evening Grand Teton National Park wildlife tours year-round.
As snow blankets the valley and surrounding mountains, the landscape transforms into a picturesque vista upon which spotting animals can be even more prospective than in the summertime. Wildlife moving across the increasingly whiter terrain as winter progresses truly “pop” due to the extreme color contrasts.
Prepare to look for bison, moose, elk, coyotes, foxes, eagles, bighorn sheep- and even the elusive gray wolf! The scenery is also remarkable during these chilly months, when the evergreens are snow-flocked and festive, and the mountain peaks of the famous Teton Range are crowned with expansive snowbanks, only further emphasizing their jagged beauty.
Another advantage of a winter tour is that it is one of the quieter times of year in the park. Most visitors come in summer, making winter a special window through which you can discover a more peaceful vision of Grand Teton National Park. It is well worth booking this half-day winter tour with Jackson Hole Wildlife Safaris.
After leaving Jackson, we will head north along the refuge's western boundary to Grand Teton National Park. Here, we will travel along the southern park roads, watching for wildlife and stopping frequently for photo ops.
You will see places like Antelope Flats and the small town of Kelly and views of several mountain ranges that form the valley of Jackson Hole. Jackson Hole’s wintering wildlife is abundant, with opportunities to see bison, elk, deer, moose, fox, coyote, bald eagle, trumpeter swans, and, if we’re lucky, wolves.
If time allows, we might also choose to stop at the Jackson Hole Visitor Center, or the Moose Visitor Center in Grand Teton National Park. The route varies seasonally based on group interest, road closures, and wildlife migration.
