Activity itinerary
Grand Canyon of the Yellowstone
- 30m
The Grand Canyon of the Yellowstone presents one of nature's most spectacular displays, where the mighty Yellowstone River plunges over two massive waterfalls into a thousand-foot-deep gorge. The canyon's golden walls, painted with splashes of pink, red, and white by ancient thermal activity, frame the legendary Lower and Upper Falls. The 308-foot Lower Falls thunders with particular majesty, while multiple viewpoints along both rims offer awe-inspiring perspectives of this magnificent landscape. Artist Point (Upper Autumn) and Lookout Point (Lower Autumn) provide especially dramatic views of this natural masterpiece.
Lamar Valley
- 1h
Nicknamed "America's Serengeti," the Lamar Valley is Yellowstone's premier wildlife viewing destination. This sweeping grassland, carved by ancient glaciers and the meandering Lamar River, provides a vital habitat for the park's most iconic species. Visitors can observe vast herds of bison, packs of wolves, grizzly bears, elk, pronghorn, and countless birds from the comfort of their vehicle or roadside pullouts. Dawn and dusk offer particularly magical moments when the valley comes alive with animal activity.
Slough Creek
- 30m
A paradise for both wildlife watchers and anglers, Slough Creek ranks among the world's premier locations for observing wild wolves in their natural habitat. This pristine valley, accessible via a scenic gravel road, offers sweeping views of sage-dotted meadows where wolf packs hunt, play, and tend to their pups. The creek itself, famous for its native cutthroat trout, winds through three distinct meadows. Dawn visitors are often rewarded with unforgettable displays of wildlife, from hunting wolves to grizzly bears and massive bison herds.
Tower Fall
- 15m
Plunging 132 feet past dramatic volcanic spires, Tower Autumn ranks among Yellowstone's most picturesque waterfalls. Named for the towering pinnacles of volcanic rock that stand sentinel around its cascade, this elegant waterfall draws visitors to its viewing platform year-round. The surrounding Tower-Roosevelt area, with its rugged basalt columns and pine forests, provides a striking backdrop for this natural wonder and serves as prime habitat for black bears, grizzlies, and agile bighorn sheep. A short paved trail from the parking area leads to the primary overlook.
Mammoth Hot Springs
- 30m
Mammoth Hot Springs is a unique cluster of natural attractions situated at the northernmost entrance of Yellowstone National Park, just outside Gardiner, Montana. This remarkable site is celebrated for its striking travertine formations, which arise from the accumulation of mineral deposits over time. The pools within Mammoth Hot Springs are home to various species of algae that thrive in the warm waters, imparting a distinctive brownish and reddish hue to the surroundings.
Gibbon Falls
- 15m
Thundering 84 feet over a rocky cliff face, Gibbon Falls offers a dramatic roadside spectacle along the Grand Loop Road. This expansive waterfall, where the Gibbon River makes its dramatic descent, spreads like a white veil over ancient lava flows. Multiple observation points provide excellent views of the cascade as it tumbles through a rugged canyon. The convenient parking area and wheelchair-accessible viewing platform make this one of Yellowstone's most easily accessible waterfalls.
Norris Geyser Basin
- 30m
Embark on an extraordinary adventure through the most geothermally active zone within Yellowstone, where you'll have the unique chance to witness the iconic Steamboat Geyser and the breathtaking Porcelain Basin Hot Springs. The terrain offers a diverse range of trails, spanning from a short 0.2-mile stroll to a more extensive 3-mile hike, allowing you to customise your experience according to your preferences.
Mount Washburn
- 30m
Rising 10,243 feet above sea level, Mount Washburn offers one of Yellowstone's most rewarding day hikes and premium grizzly bear habitat. The well-maintained trail to its summit winds through alpine meadows bursting with wildflowers, where grizzlies frequently graze during summer months. From the historic fire lookout at the peak, hikers enjoy breathtaking 360-degree views of the park's vast wilderness. Bighorn sheep often gather near the summit, while the surrounding slopes provide excellent opportunities to spot bears foraging on the mountainside.
Undine Falls
- 15m
Tucked along the scenic Mammoth-Tower road, Undine Falls cascades gracefully in three distinct tiers over ancient volcanic cliffs. This 60-foot waterfall, named after mythical water spirits, offers a perfect roadside stop for photographers and nature enthusiasts. The falls' multiple steps create an enchanting display as Lava Creek tumbles through a rugged basalt canyon, especially dramatic during spring snowmelt. A convenient pullout provides excellent viewing of this hidden gem.
