This destination for outdoor adventure is some of Mother Nature’s finest work.
Wonderfully wild yet civilized, Jackson, Wyoming, is a dream for seekers of outdoor adventure and natural beauty. Located in the 400-square-mile Jackson Hole valley, Jackson is surrounded by a handful of sister towns, including Kelly, Moose, Moran, Wilson and Teton Village. Although it’s a winter wonderland, offering some of the best skiing in North America, the town is very much alive in summer, too, with rafting, hiking and mountain biking. Beyond the wildlife and Ansel Adams-worthy panoramas, the dining scene is seductive, featuring international fare alongside local ingredients like elk, bison and trout.

Twelve miles northwest of Jackson (and 17 from Grand Teton National Park), this small mountain town turns from white to green in the summer, welcoming hikers, horseback riders and mountain bikers.
