Phillips Bench Trailhead - Located on Teton Pass, and easily accessible from Jackson or Victor, this winding hike is on the easier side, while still providing some challenging assents. A 2.5 mile hike up, you'll arrive to Ski Lake, a lovely alpine lake, with stunning views along the way. This is one of Sara Ann's favorite hikes!
Grand Teton National Park offers some of the most iconic mountain scenery in the country, and we are privilaged to have such close access. For a simple and rewarding outing, the trails around String Lake, Jenny Lake or Taggart Lake that provide beautiful views without requiring a full-day commitment. A drive through the park is just as worthwhile, with plenty of scenic drives and picture perfect pull - offs. Local tip: Grab a bite and a beer after a day of adventure for epic Teton views just outside the south entrance, at Dornan's.
We are home to three epic mountian resorts, Jackson Hole Mountian Resort (Teton Village, WY) Snow King (Jackson, WY) and Grand Targhee (Alta, WY - access via Driggs, ID), well known for deep powder and steep slopes in the winter, the summer action is just as epic!
Take in the valley by riding the aerial tram at JHMR, and then enjoy some time dining or shopping in Teton Village, stop in the Mangy Moose for nachos and a fun time, don't forget to grab a souvenir from the gift shop on the way out!
In Jackson, find your way to Snow King - the intown resort (you can see the slopes from town square!). Known as the town treadmill for keeping people fit through all the seasons, the hikes up Snow King are shorter, but mighty! For a slower pace, head to the Alpine Slide or Cowboy Coaster for some fun rides, or ride up the gondola for incredible views of town and the Grand!
Views of the Tetons are almost more epic, on the sunny side of the hill, in Idaho! Drive through Driggs, ID crossing over the state line into Alta, WY, where you'll find Grand Targhee Resort. Here you can enjoy fun family friendly hikes with BIG Teton views!
Victor is a beautiful small town, with one stop light, and many fields. It's idilic and western, and we hope you love it! We encourage you to explore the area into Driggs or Jackson, but while you are here....enjoy breakfast at Butter, BBQ from Big Hole BBQ, and get yourself a burger or a plate of meats at The Knotty Pine - with lovely outdoor seating in the summer! Grab a local beer at Guide Post and sit out on the lawn at Grand Teton Brewing. You can grab your essentials (as well as wine and beer) or a sandwich for the road at the Victor Valley Market, and satisfy your sweet tooth with a Huckleberry milkshake at the Victor Emporium.
Driggs is considered the "Big City"! Also with one stop light, Driggs does offer more dining and shopping opportunities - including a super market, Broulim's! Get yourself a coffee and a world class pastry at Wydaho Roasters and mellow out later, in a courtyard ,with a glass of wine and a snack, at Maison. If you want to get into some shopping visit Soulstice for curated thrifting or prep for your alpine adventure at Yostmark. For dinner, our go to is Teton Thai. The food, the service, and the vibe are top tier - You must try the fried dumplings and cashew nut beef! In the same building you'll find rooftop pizza at Tetonka Tavern, and across the street enjoy sneaky good sushi, a sister to a famous Jackson location, King Sushi.
