LAMAR VALLEY HIKING ADVENTURE
Trip Difficulty:
Easy to moderate
Experience Yellowstone’s Lamar Valley, the most wildlife-rich area in North America, with expert naturalist guides who bring the landscape to life. Our small-group hike offers an immersive way to explore this iconic valley, known as “America’s Serengeti,” with opportunities to see bison, elk, pronghorn, bears, wolves, moose, and more.
While wildlife sightings from your vehicle are common in the park, our hike offers a unique opportunity to step out of your car and experience Yellowstone’s wildlife in a whole new way. Our trek takes you across rolling meadows, sagebrush flats, and gentle ridges, allowing you to observe wildlife from a safe distance while soaking in the valley’s stunning scenery. You’ll have the chance to see animals up close yet from afar, using high-quality binoculars and a spotting scope, all with the guidance of an experienced naturalist.
