Hiking

Jenny Lake is a beautiful lake at the base of the Tetons in Grand Teton National Park. The stunning views of Teewinot Mountain, Mount St. John, and Cascade Canyon over the water, the small Visitor Center and Interpretive Trail, and the multitude of popular trails that leave from its southeastern shores make it one of the visited areas in the entire park. After checking out this overlook hikers can travel around the lake in a loop, visit Hidden Falls, and Inspiration Point, or travel into the backcountry up Cascade Canyon toward Lake Solitude.

The second largest lake in the Grand Teton NP offers many hiking opportunities that always allow a different perspective on the lake and allow you to experience the diverse nature.
