Wyoming & Montana's Stunning National Parks
This is the Wild West. The land of bison, ranches and sprawling glacier valleys. But you don’t have to be a cowboy to enjoy it. After all, we love our elegant hotels, afternoons at the pool and ranch-to-table meals. And most of all, we love our vast wildernesses, deep forests and towering mountains. This country can be as wild as you can imagine and as indulgent as you want. Discover Bozeman, Jackson and two national parks—the Wild West without compromises.

We want to make sure you're on the trip that's right for you. Every Backroads trip is unique and this one is no exception.
On this trip we spend one night at Jackson Lake Lodge. While this accommodation reflects the natural surroundings of the national park and provides unparalleled access to the best activities in the area, it is simpler than typical Backroads lodging. The lodge has basic guest rooms that are not equipped with televisions or air-conditioning. Overall, the service standards can seem slow and casual when compared with the hospitality found on other Backroads trips. Please note that internet and cell phone service are extremely limited throughout the parks.
The National Park Service limits the size of all groups and Grand Teton National Park doesn’t permit guided hiking. Accordingly, in Yellowstone National Park you’ll bike and hike in small groups with Backroads leaders. In Grand Teton National Park, you'll bike in small groups with Backroads leaders. If you choose to hike in Grand Teton National Park, you’ll hike without Backroads leaders or local guides, but your leaders will provide pre-walk briefings, maps and directions. We appreciate your cooperation with park regulations.

Trip of a Lifetime
Fabulous riding on a great (performance) bike. I kept looking up and gasping, Wow! The scenery was amazing. The leaders were fun, creative, competent and engaging. A good balance of solitude and community. Yummy, healthy meals and snacks. For someone who is directionally challenged, the WaHoo devices provided comfort that I was on the right route.
Our Backroads trip from Bozeman to Jackson was the best!
The scenery and rides we took from Bozeman to Yellowstone and on down to the Grand Tetons and Jackson Wyoming were spectacular. Our guides were outstanding and really made it a fun experience! I highly recommend and E bike as it provides and extra boost if you need it on the steeper climbs, but you can still get in a great workout whether you use the assistance or not. The food and accommodations were exceptional and our fellow bikers were lots of fun as well! Looking forward to doing another Backroads trip in the future!
Incredible experience!
Absolutely behind my expectations. First class trip all the way, from accommodations to food to equipment and especially the staff we spent time with. The price seems high at first look, but based on our experience, it was worth every penny. We had a private group, so we knew all our fellow travelers. I think this enhanced our experience. We saw things I would have never seen and pushed myself to my limits, and I am very proud of that. Would very highly recommend.
Truly a Bucket List Trip!
The scenic routes were breathtaking. The prismatic hot springs and geysers at Yellowstone were beyond beautiful. The Grand Tetons ride was fabulous! Ted, Cad and Becca could not have been more accommodating and cheerful. They anticipated every need and were always nearby to offer refreshments, take pictures for us, and of course give guidance so we didn't miss anything along the way. We had plenty of time on the bike as well as time to explore. I can't imagine how this trip could be improved- it lacked for nothing.
