Non-motorized traffic can now enjoy the roads in Grand Teton National Park.

Once the roads are cleared, for a period of time each Spring, the park is open to non-motorized travel. Bike, walk, rollerblade etc. on the roads before they are open to cars. Rent a bike and experience the park in a way few people do. Make a day of it and take a picnic lunch, dine where you enjoy the views the most.

Many park in the Taggart parking area and venture North to to do the Jenny Lake loop. The Northern end of the park can be accessed via Moran, then head to Signal Mountain Lodge area or explore further North. The serenity is amazing. Locals truly enjoy this time of year as they are used to sharing the park with many more visitors.
