You’ll have the next day to explore the area on your own; we’ll be happy to suggest some of our favorite park destinations and activities. On your last day, we’ll head down to Old Faithful to see the world’s largest collection of thermal features and also visit the Grand Canyon of the Yellowstone. Days include hikes up to 3 miles per day with elevation gains of up to 250 feet (some off-trail hiking possible). (April-October)
