It’s nestled right next to the tallest Teton peaks, which makes for incredible views. The 1.3-mile trail is moderate and appeals to hikers of most skill levels. Teton Pass and Black CanyonTeton Pass is another stunning hike. It’s approximately 4 miles long and makes you start at the Teton Pass. You also won’t have to climb too high during your climb. Indeed, the trail starts after the elevation’s the steepest! Granite CanyonGranite Canyon Loop is a perfect continuation of the Teton Pass hike. The trailhead is located by the pass station and leads west toward the mountain. This is a hike you’ll want to remember, so bring your camera! Static Peak DivideThe Static Peak Divide starts at the Death Canyon trailhead and is considered the highest mountain pass in Grand Teton Park. We highly recommend you hike the trail before noon as afternoon thunderstorms can be quite intense up there. Two Oceans Lake LoopTwo Oceans Lake is perfect for hikers wanting to avoid the crowded areas. The loop trail is located in the northeast part of Grand Teton and features rolling terrain and stellar views of the mountain range.
