Part of the Rocky Mountains, Grand Teton National Park is the youngest park in that mountain range. It is located in Wyoming and is surrounded by deep canyons and lakes. Visitors enjoy the spectacular views while driving through the park via Jackson Hole Highway U.S. 89/191 which runs the entire length of the park. Scenic Viewing: The three Tetons consist of the South, Middle and the Grand. The Teton Range is the focal point of the park and Jackson Hole is the valley where there are the rivers and streams. Nature and Wildlife: The Teton Wilderness offers many hiking trails, roaming animals, and a variety of trees and plant life. There are as many as 300 bird species and 17 species of carnivores. Mahalo Suggests: While planning your trip, see our pages for Wyoming, Wyoming Outdoors, Yellowstone National Park, and Rocky Mountains.
