The Most Scenic Way to Access Yellowstone National Park Is Called the 'Most Beautiful Roadway in America'

"The park's northeastern gateway sits near the Montana–Wyoming border and is known for abundant wildlife; it provides a direct, scenic entry point for visitors arriving via the adjacent high mountain highway and lies just over a mile beyond the small town of Silver Gate. Because access is affected by seasonal conditions on the connecting mountain road, travelers should verify road and weather status before planning entry through this approach; the entrance is a favored access point for those seeking wildlife viewing and for road-trip itineraries that include the surrounding dramatic landscapes." - Evie Carrick Evie Carrick Evie Carrick is a writer and editor who’s lived in five countries and visited well over 50.
