A GUIDE TO FALL IN TETON VALLEY

Fall in Teton Valley is such a wonderful time of year. You’ll experience yellows and reds as the leaves begin to change from shedding their vibrant green giving their last hoorah to summer. Especially in a destination ski town when the hype for the first powder day is just around the corner. In the valley, you can enjoy all of the local fall events. There is always so much to do and see, from live music and delicious food to the Downtown Driggs Trick-or-Treat experience on Halloween. Visit Teton Valley, and bring people together to create lasting memories under the Tetons. 

Hiking is a no-brainer activity to do in Teton Valley. It is a wonderful way to enjoy the beautiful weather and scenery during the season. Make sure to dress in layers, wear comfortable shoes, and bring plenty of water and snacks for the journey. Within a few miles of Teton Valley Cabins, there are so many great trails to explore, with the colors of the changing leaves creating a breathtaking backdrop across the mountains.

Be sure to explore Yellowstone National Park during the autumn season, it is truly breathtaking. The park is known for its stunning natural beauty, and it was even more vibrant during this time of year. The trees were ablaze with colors ranging from fiery oranges to deep burgundies, creating an awe-inspiring backdrop for our adventures.

A classic favorite experiences is hiking along the park’s trails, which offers stunning views of the surrounding mountains and valleys. We even spotted some wildlife, including elk and bison, which added to the already magical atmosphere.

Another highlight when visiting the park’s geothermal features, such as the iconic Old Faithful geyser. Watching the water shoot up into the air is a mesmerizing sight, and the steam rising from the hot springs creates a beautiful contrast against the autumn backdrop.

Overall, exploring Yellowstone during the autumn season is an unforgettable experience. The park’s natural beauty is truly awe-inspiring, and with easy access to West Yellowstone from Teton Valley Cabins, it’s a must-see while you are staying with us.

If you are looking for an affordable and family-friendly trip to take before the holiday craze sets in, stay at Teton Valley Cabins.
