What To Expect

West Thumb Geyser Basin

Our Twilight Tour is a 4 to 5 mile journey and usually takes about 3 hours. After a brief orientation with your guide, the group will paddle along the shore of Yellowstone Lake, North America's Largest High Alpine Lake! Depending on weather conditions and the group ability, our guides will safely escort the group to West Thumb Geyser Basin. After touring the Geyser Basin, where dozens of geothermal features are visible above and below the water's surface, we will return along the same route, stopping for refreshment and a chance to explore along the shore of the lake, arriving back at our Launch Point in Grant Marina before the sun sets. Return time may vary depending on group size, weather, fitness, and of course the time the sunsets.

This was one of the highlights of our trip, it was so worth it! The views were amazing at sunset, the water was super calm and it wasn’t hard work to get to the west thumb geyser basin on Yellowstone Lake. Our guides were awesome and super fun to spend 3 hours on the lake with. They were very knowledgeable and made us feel safe despite the super cold water we were kayaking on. We would totally recommend doing this, it is a great way to see the lake!
