Things to do in Wyoming, United States: The Best Bodies of Water
Wyoming boasts a positively selfish hoard of natural outdoor beauty! From the soaring peaks of the Grand Tetons to Jackson Hole valley and Yellowstone National Park, the mountain landscape and natural wonders of Wyoming are breathtaking. All-season outdoor activities prove a natural draw for families, couples and group getaways. Sports lovers golf through spring and summer at attractive rates or tackle river and lake fishing, hunting and hiking. Families take to Alpine skiing and snowmobiling in Jackson Hole, Snow King, Grand Targhee and Pine Creek. Every visitor is awed by the deep canyons and steaming geysers of The Yellowstone National Park. Each magnificent sight rivals the next. The Grand Tetons rise over a mile above Jackson Hole valley, where a ride on the Aerial Tram from Teton Village offers unforgettable views. Across the entire state, wildlife stakes its rightful claim, from bison and bighorn sheep herds to black bear and mountain elk. For a step back in frontier history, take the family to Go Native America to experience Native American culture, history and arts of the Plains Tribes. Enjoy tours with indigenous guides, horseback riding and roping lessons. With every experience, your family will gain a sense of the pioneer spirit that pushed America westward.

Recommend hiking the 3 miles along Jenny Lake and viewing the lake and beautiful scenery along the way to Hidden falls & Inspiration point and then taking the short boat trip back. Remember to pack snacks, water or lunch for when you get to Inspiration point to rest and take in the gorgeous view of the lake and valley below.

7/27/18 Took the ferry across Jenny Lake and by the time we were done we were VERY glad we did. This is a LONG hike 15+ miles with about 3000 ft elevation gain, and goes up to 9000ft elevation so oxygen is not as plentiful! If you are in decent shape do this hike. As beautiful as Cascade Canyon is (and it IS beautiful) easily the better views are along the North Fork ascending to Lake Solitude. End of July and there was almost no snow at all, only one very small area near the top. Lake was all water too. LOTS of mosquitoes around the lake but that was the only place we ran into them. You will be exhausted but exhilarated!

Yellowstone National Park's largest lake.
Reviewed By NatParkHikerJess - Peoria, United States
The best views of the lake we found were driving behind Lake Hotel to a parking area there. It's right on the shore of the lake with a little viewing deck as well. To escape crowds and get a more solitary lake experience, I highly rec driving out past Fishing Bridge to the Storm Point hike, which takes you along the shore of the lake and out to a secluded beach. Both are gorgeous places to enjoy this large alpine lake.

River located in Yellowstone National Park: perfect for fishing, canoeing or watching the geysers erupting.
Reviewed By ccrowe3 - Lakeside, United States
Yellowstone has a few little side roads, most of which are only able to be traveled in one direction. There is a small one way road along part of the Firehole River that is beautiful and includes a great waterfall.
