Yellowstone – Wildlife, Geysers & Mountain Towns

Discover Yellowstone National Park and the small mountain towns surrounding it on this circular journey from Bozeman, Montana.

Begin in Livingston, an attractive railroad town beside the Yellowstone River. Continue through the beautiful Paradise Valley to Gardiner, the historic community at Yellowstone’s North Entrance.

Two nights in Gardiner provide time to discover Mammoth Hot Springs and the wildlife-rich landscapes of northern Yellowstone. Drive through Lamar Valley, one of the finest wildlife-watching areas in North America, where bison, elk, pronghorn, bears and wolves may be seen from a safe distance.

Travel across the park to West Yellowstone and spend three nights close to its famous geothermal areas. See Old Faithful, Grand Prismatic Spring, Norris Geyser Basin, Yellowstone Lake, Hayden Valley and the dramatic Grand Canyon of the Yellowstone.

Return to Bozeman by way of Hebgen Lake, Ennis and, when seasonal attractions are operating, the historic gold-rush communities of Virginia City and Nevada City.

The suggested package includes seven nights, but your journey is completely flexible. Add or remove nights, choose your preferred hotels and select the rental-car category that best suits your adventure.
