Wyoming: Grand Teton & Yellowstone National Parks
From spectacular geysers and colorful hot springs to moose, elk, grizzly bears and eagles, America’s first national park is the perfect backdrop for your Yellowstone biking tour. Add the western flair and history of the town of Jackson and you’ve got a vacation to remember. With the snow-covered Teton Range in the distance, you’ll pedal on bike paths and roads past geothermal pools, pristine lakes, stunning waterfalls and grazing animals. Out of the saddle, you’ll get up close and personal with Yellowstone’s distinctive features and enjoy a picnic lunch along the lovely Madison River, making for an unforgettable vacation with memories that will last a lifetime.What to Expect
This tour offers a full range of easy terrain mixed with moderate hills and the opportunity for some longer rides. It is ideal for beginner and experienced cyclists. The majority of the rides are on paved park roads, many with shoulders. Higher elevations can cause fatigue (over 7,000 ft. in YNP; up to 6,800 ft. in GTNP; and 6,200 ft. in Jackson) so cyclists should hydrate, pace themselves, and respect their limits. Our VBT support vehicle is available throughout the trip, sometimes at designated pull-offs per park regulations.
The National Park Service limits the size of groups. Grand Teton National Park does not permit guided hiking and you will bike in small groups with VBT leaders but hike without VBT leaders or local guides. Your leaders will provide pre-walk briefings, maps, and directions. In Yellowstone National Park you will bike with VBT leaders and hike on your own if your group is over 15 guests. We appreciate your cooperation with the parks’ regulations.
Note: Authorized Permittee of the National Park Service.
