• The complete guide to GTNP & Jackson •

Dont miss a thing in Jackson Hole or Grand Teton National Park.

Bigger than New York City (counting all five boroughs, of course) and Washington D.C. combined, Grand Teton National Park could take a lifetime to explore. But what do you do when your time frame is limited? Whats not to miss? Wheres the best hike? How should you go about finding buffalo? Is there a difference between a buffalo and a bison? Which campground is best for you?

And what about the towns around the park?

Although its population is only about 9,000 people, Jackson is surprisingly amenity rich. Wheres the best dessert in town? The best place to treat yourself? How much is a round of golf at Dick Cheneys golf club? Where should you stay?

Even if youre just driving through, use this app to see whats hiding in the parks lodgepole and aspen forests, high alpine tundras, and granite crags ... and why the breakfast at Jenny Lake Lodge is worth a detour off the main highway. Or to learn about Jacksons history. (Did you know Jackson was the countrys first town to have an all-female government?)

Award-winning travel writer Dina Mishev has lived in Jackson for 15 years, is the editor in chief of Jackson Hole magazine, and is currently authoring Zagats guide to JH dining. She shares 250 of her are favorites, including easy hikes, historical facts, backcountry campsites, restaurants, cafes, lodges, outfitters, climbs, views, and a bar that serves up a platter of nachos as big as a baby bison. Youll find Dinas recommendations for places to stay and eat in Jackson as well as activities you shouldnt miss.

Use the handy maps to find a collection of activities in one area. See the map distance from your current location to your desired activity. If youre short on time, check out Dinas "Top 10," which might have a few more than 10 entries. Beyond that, youll find recommendations for driving tours, restaurants, camping, kids, fishing and boating, hiking and climbing, wildlife watching, and more. All activities are assigned to a neighborhood (southern park, Jackson, Moran, Teton Village).

If Dinas pithy and insightful description leaves you intrigued, a further website reference is included. If theres a cost it is noted, as are hours and seasonal closures.
