10 Visitor Centers in Wyoming That You Shouldn't Miss

February 20, 2022 Kaleigh Reichenbach

Wyoming boasts a positively selfish hoard of natural outdoor beauty! From the soaring peaks of the Grand Tetons to Jackson Hole valley and Yellowstone National Park, the mountain landscape and natural wonders of Wyoming are breathtaking. All-season outdoor activities prove a natural draw for families, couples and group getaways. Sports lovers golf through spring and summer at attractive rates or tackle river and lake fishing, hunting and hiking. Families take to Alpine skiing and snowmobiling in Jackson Hole, Snow King, Grand Targhee and Pine Creek. Every visitor is awed by the deep canyons and steaming geysers of The Yellowstone National Park. Each magnificent sight rivals the next. The Grand Tetons rise over a mile above Jackson Hole valley, where a ride on the Aerial Tram from Teton Village offers unforgettable views. Across the entire state, wildlife stakes its rightful claim, from bison and bighorn sheep herds to black bear and mountain elk. For a step back in frontier history, take the family to Go Native America to experience Native American culture, history and arts of the Plains Tribes. Enjoy tours with indigenous guides, horseback riding and roping lessons. With every experience, your family will gain a sense of the pioneer spirit that pushed America westward.

Visitors often have trouble visualizing the Yellowstone hot spot, especially with internet sources screaming “the Supervolcano is overdue” so frequently. Yellowstone volcanism is presented in perspective here with nature, media, art, Native culture and earthquakes in a most educational balance. Often visitors only allow themselves one day to see the park and so have to miss the visitor centers. Please plan ahead for several days and take advantage of this outstanding resource to help appreciate the wonders of the park much better.

Reviewed By billandgeorgeanna - Lake Havasu City, United States

We always start our visit at the Visitor's Center and if they have a video or two spend the time to watch before we tour the area. They had a great video on the history which ended just in time for us to get a great spot to watch Old Faithful.

Did a visit to check the availability of the trails. Went away with plenty good advice. While there, another visitor came back after his visit to thanks the receptionist for his superb advice. Would have done the same but left the park at 7pm, after a great afternoon in the park !
