Embark on a unique family vacation and step back in time with the Teton Covered Wagon Train and Horse Adventure. This immersive experience allows you to relive the journey of the American West, offering an unparalleled outdoor adventure nestled between Yellowstone and Grand Teton National Parks. Prepare for a vacation filled with majestic views, exciting activities, and a genuine taste of cowboy life.
An Unforgettable Wagon Train Journey
The Teton Wagon Train offers a modern twist on the traditional Conestoga wagon, ensuring your comfort with features like rubber tires and padded seats. Over four days and three nights, you’ll traverse pristine backcountry, camping in new locations each day. Keep an eye out for local wildlife such as moose, elk, and deer. You’ll spend peaceful evenings by the shores of high mountain lakes, serenaded by the calls of loons and trumpeter swans.
The route encircles the stunning Teton Mountain Range, venturing into areas close to both Yellowstone and Grand Teton National Parks, as well as designated wilderness areas. One night is spent camping atop the Teton Mountain Range, and the trek continuously operates within the “Yellowstone Grizzly Bear Recovery Zone,” offering a thrilling sense of true wilderness.
