Grand Teton National Park is a United States National Park in north-western Wyoming. At approximately 310,000 acres (130,000 ha), the park includes the major peaks of the 40-mile-long (64 km) Teton Range as well as most of the northern sections of the valley known as Jackson Hole. It is only 10 miles (16 km) south of Yellowstone National Park, giving visitors the chance to see both amazing parks in one trip.
This is also one of the most beautiful park areas in the world, encompassing miles of trees, grass, lakes, creeks and mountain ranges, not to mention a large and diverse wildlife community.
