Taking the Jenny Lake Ferry

Описание: 🥾Everything you need to know 👇

📍Jenny Lake Ferry
🌎Grand Teton National Park

The Jenny Lake Ferry is one of the most convenient and beautiful ways to explore Grand Teton National Park. This short but stunning boat ride shuttles visitors across the crystal-clear waters of Jenny Lake, cutting out a two-mile hike around the lake and dropping you off near the base of some of the park’s most iconic trails.

In just 5–7 minutes, the ferry takes you from the East Shore to the West Shore, where you’ll find easy access to Hidden Falls, Inspiration Point, and the Cascade Canyon Trail. The ride itself offers breathtaking views of the Teton Range and is a perfect way to soak in the scenery without breaking a sweat.

Ferries run every 10–15 minutes during peak hours (typically May through September), and tickets can be purchased at the dock. Whether you're short on time or just want a relaxing way to start your hike, the Jenny Lake Ferry is a must-do experience in the Tetons.
