Summer Activities
When the sun is shining and the wildlife is roaming…
Embrace the year-round adventure of Jackson Hole and explore the last real mountain town during our sun-filled summer season. From fly fishing, river rafting and trail running to an exciting bungee and ropes course – we have something for every thrill-seeker and outdoor enthusiast in the summer and spring.
Mountain Biking Adventures
Steps from the hotel is a network of single-track mountain bike trails for all skill levels. Let our adventure specialists help with bike rentals, guides to the area, tickets for the Teewinot chairlift or for maps to wildflower-saturated Jackson Hole backcountry.
Wildlife Viewing
Jackson Hole is part of the Greater Yellowstone Ecosystem. We enlist several highly experienced guides for wildlife tours in safari-style vehicles, offering rare insight into both the animals and the habitat that surrounds them.
Road Cycling
Jackson Hole offers paved roads, dirt roads and trails with incredible views. Some of our favorite rides are along National Elk Refuge Road or on the more than 60 miles of paved pathways that run throughout the valley. If you’re up for a challenge, you can try cycling over Teton Pass.
Hot Air Balloon Rides
Don’t just watch hot air balloons lift up among the mountain peaks – be in one. The whoosh of air as you go up and then the silence as you enjoy the landscape below… it’s a summer activity in Jackson Hole not to be missed.
Horseback Riding
Experience the romance of the Old West, go deep into the backcountry or high in the mountains on horseback. Let our concierge craft your perfect half- or full day horseback adventure in Jackson Hole.
Golf
It’s hard to keep your eye on the ball when you play golf in Jackson Hole. The Jackson Hole Golf & Tennis championship course, ranked #1 in Wyoming by Golf Digest, combines a cleverly designed layout with stunning views. The Teton Pines championship golf course was designed by Arnold Palmer and boasts beautiful water features and mountain views.
Rafting
Sure to become your favorite Jackson Hole summer activity, guided Snake River rafting tours are exhilarating and sure to get your adrenaline pumping. Scenic floats are a calmer option, offering moments to catch wildlife in their surroundings.
Fly Fishing
Jackson Hole is one of the premier fly-fishing destinations. The Snake River and other waterways offer access to native fish. Our select list of experienced guides not only know where the fish are, but they can teach you to catch (and release) them.
Kayaking
Choose between the Snake River canyon or the alpine lakes in Grand Teton National Park. Our team of adventure specialists can help you rent equipment, find a guide or point you in the right direction for solo adventure.
Paragliding
Let a trained instructor take you tandem gliding among the mountain peaks, with dips and swings that will make you want to experience it again and again.
Glider Rides
There is a certain magic to motorless flight above the Tetons and surrounding mountain ranges that simply has to be experienced to be truly understood.
Hiking Jackson Hole
Hiking trails begin right outside our door, and lead into the vast national forest and park lands. With more than 97% of the greater Jackson Hole area protected or preserved land, the opportunities for spectacular hikes are endless. Whether you want a moderate stroll or an adventurous expedition, we’ll find the perfect route for you.
