What To Expect

Grand Canyon of the Yellowstone

Our Grand Canyon of the Yellowstone hike combines one of the Park’s most spectacular attractions with a serene journey through forests, meadows, lakes, and mud pots. The day starts by enjoying Artist Point, one of the most phenomenal waterfall views in N. America. Then we set off on the trail for more awe-inspiring views of this uniquely colored canyon. We escape the crowds as our route continues through a fragrant forest that opens up to picturesque meadows and lakes. Finally, we reach a backcountry geyser basin, yet another zone. Here we enjoy the rare pleasure of viewing mud pots and fumaroles without the boardwalks. We'll find a pleasant spot to sit and fill up on a delicious picnic lunch prepared by your guide. This trail system offers the flexibility to make this hike anywhere between 3.5 to 8 miles, with a couple variations in between. All options will offer the highlights. Let your guide know what your goals are for the day and they will pick the best route for you.

Without a doubt the best hike in all of Yellowstone. We did the south loop which took us not just through gorgeous sights of the canyon, but also through a geyser/mudpot area and incredible fields of blooming flowers. This trail had every type of scene that you can imagine, all rolled up into one hike. And we wouldn't have even known these other areas were right there behind the canyon if we didn't have such knowledgeable guides from Wildland. Highly recommend.

This was a basecamp trip for 5 days. Some hikes were challenging, others were more for the exposure ţo Yellowstone. The guides were top tier, first rate. The food was very tasty and had great variety. The guests were all friendly and compatable. I recommend this trip and would juse them again.
