7:15 PM LOCAL TIMEGrand Teton is a high, rugged mountain massif and protected area in northwest Wyoming. The centerpiece is Grand Teton itself, rising to 4190 meters (13,775 feet) above sea level — one of the most dramatic peaks in the US Rockies. The park’s stark alpine terrain transitions to forested valleys, sweeping meadows and crystalline lakes that make it a year-round destination. Popular activities include day hikes to summits or high passes, canoeing and kayaking on known lakes, scenic drives and overnight camping. The area is a magnet for wildlife viewing: look for moose, elk, bears, bald eagles and pronghorn across sunrise- and sunset-lit landscapes. Nearby towns like Jackson serve as gateways for lodging, services and arrival points.
