The Grand Teton National Park – Gros Ventre Camp loop offers a fantastic touring cycling experience, primarily on smooth paved surfaces. As you pedal, you'll be treated to sweeping vistas of the Teton Range and the meandering Snake River, passing through sagebrush fields and forests of spruce and fir. The route often skirts the National Elk Refuge, providing excellent chances to spot local wildlife, and culminates with stunning views of Blacktail Butte and the Grand Teton Mountain Range near the Gros Ventre Campground.
This moderate 35.4-mile (56.9 km) loop, with 752 feet (229 metres) of elevation gain, takes approximately 3 hours and 23 minutes to complete. It's essential to note that the pathway section from Jackson to Gros Ventre Junction is closed annually from November 1 to April 30 for elk migration, so plan your ride during the warmer months for full access. The route is part of the well-maintained Grand Teton Pathway system.
This cycling route is celebrated for its blend of accessible paths and the immersive natural beauty of Grand Teton National Park. It's a popular choice for those wanting to explore the park's diverse ecosystems, from river valleys to high mountain views, all while enjoying a well-supported and scenic ride.
