Jackson Point Overlook

The most underrated spot to watch the sunset, there was only two of us out there and you had the best view. We went october 23 and on the way up there saw elk and a grouse. The road was a little icy in a couple of spots!

It's a nice turnout spot for scenic views. It's worth the walk down to the water, I regrettably didn't. It can be crowded trying to park so I took pictures as I drove by slowly.

The iconic view that made Ansel Adams famous! This is IT - the view you’ve seen in a thousand photos and calendars! Jackson Point Overlook delivers that absolutely classic, postcard-perfect shot of the Teton Range rising dramatically from the valley floor. My wife and I couldn’t stop taking pictures, even though we knew they’d never do justice to what we were seeing. Standing here, you instantly understand why Ansel Adams chose this exact spot for his legendary “The Tetons and the Snake River” photograph. The composition is flawless - the Snake River meandering through the foreground, dense forest stretching across the valley, and those majestic peaks towering in the background like nature’s own cathedral. What makes this overlook special is how easily accessible it is. Just a short walk from the parking area and you’re rewarded with one of the most spectacular vistas in all of America. The viewing platform gives you the perfect vantage point, and there’s plenty of room even when it gets busy. We visited during golden hour and the light hitting those granite peaks was absolutely magical. Every angle offers a different perspective, and honestly, we spent way longer here than planned just soaking it all in. This is the kind of view that reminds you why the national parks are such treasures. If you only have time for one overlook in Grand Teton, make it this one. Absolutely unforgettable! 📷⛰️​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

Slowly go uphill to reach a parking lot before the summit for great views of the nearby valley and mountain range

Went here for a good sunset view and also got to see a beautiful mule deer grazing away unbothered.

You need to go here early if you want to see the mountains reflected in the water, but it is beautiful!

Scenic drive with a great view of the grand Teton range on one side and the valley on the other. Would have been ideal to go here during the sunset, but was beautiful nonetheless.

Absolutely one of the most picturesque locations to view the Grand Tetons. If you arrive early in the morning like we did, you will be likely to find animals such as moose, bison, and birds to view.
