Grand Teton National Park Guide, From Experts

"Perfect for a chilly, memorable swim in summer, I recommend water shoes, a dry change of clothes, and considering a life jacket when entering the icy alpine water. Jenny Lake is also the gateway to Hidden Falls: the full Jenny Lake Trail is 7.2 miles, but by taking the ferry from the Jenny Lake Visitor Center you can truncate the trip to an easy one-mile round-trip with roughly 300 feet of elevation gain to reach the 100-foot cascade — start before 9 a.m. to beat crowds and secure parking." - Lydia Mansel Lydia Mansel Lydia Mansel is a writer with more than eight years of experience editing and writing for both brands and online publications—with a particular focus on travel, fashion, and lifestyle.
