So do you actually get to hike near or on the Grand Tetons, or are they in the distance, hiking some of the nearby mountains? I am guessing there are multiple trail heads to the GT? Also, not sure where to stay the night, on the ID side, or WY side? Going to VRBO it unless there is a hotel that doesn't want $500 per night ;>) Thanks all!

There are countless day hikes in and around what I would call the base area and foothills of the Tetons. They are stunning. But the Tetons ARE within the park so it is certainly possible to hike the Tetons themselves, albeit with probably full gear and plans for an overnight stay. I’d highly recommend staying on the WY side as it can be a haul coming in from ID, and weather in the pass can be unpredictable.
Hi. We are a family of 6 visiting grand Teton for 3 nights in July. We like to stay in Airbnb. I am debating between 1 is in Teton village and 1 near Jackson specifically near Snow King Mountain. We plan to spend our time exploring the Park. Any advice is appreciated on which location would be best. Thanks

Thank you! We decided on Jackson. After spending 4 nights in a remote area west of Yellowstone I think the teens will prefer a town with shops restaurants to walk to! Thanks
I know it’s never guaranteed but has anyone had luck recently viewing grizzlies in the Tetons? Tomorrow is our last day here and we would love to see one!

Is it better to stay inside the park or in the towns right outside? We only have 2 nights 3 days there!

Grand Teton is small compared to Yellowstone and is an easy drive from Jackson. There are plenty of places to stay in Jackson if you like but I found it more convenient for taking sunrise and sunset photos when staying in the park. I'll add, if the price between rooms compare I'd choose the lodging in the park. Have a great trip, dave
