Grand Teton National Park

The Idaho side of the Tetons — known as the “Teton Valley” — is the quiet side of the Grand Tetons. It encompasses Victor, Idaho, Driggs, Idaho, and Tetonia, Idaho. Significantly less busy than its Wyoming counterpart (see the full Grand Teton National Park description under the state of Wyoming), it’s the jumping off point for explorations of the Swan Valley, Mesa Falls, the Teton River and Palisades Lake.

Consider a scenic drive along the 70-mile Teton Scenic Byway, which runs along the western slopes of the Teton Range. You’ll be rewarded with picturesque vistas, rushing rivers and historical sites.
