Planning a visit to Jackson Hole Mountain Resort

Jackson Hole Mountain Resort is in Teton Village, 12 miles northwest of the town of Jackson via Wyoming Highway 390 and Highway 22. That puts the resort outside town, so plan your transportation before heading out.

The mountain’s scale is a defining part of the setting: it has 131 named trails, a base elevation of 6,311 feet and a summit elevation of 10,450 feet. Its coordinates are 43.59° N, 110.89° W.

Its location also makes Jackson a starting point for a Grand Teton National Park day trip from Jackson.

The resort’s lifts serve 2,500 acres of in-bounds terrain, while the Aerial Tram offers a 9-minute ride to the summit. The mountain rises 4,139 vertical feet from its base to its summit.

The resort has 13 lifts, including one 100-passenger Aerial Tram and two eight-passenger gondolas. From the summit, the resort says the tram provides 360-degree views. Check which activities and lifts are operating for your planned visit, since conditions can affect operations.

Lift schedules, ticket details and availability can vary, so check the official site before you go. The resort’s operating information is subject to weather and business conditions, and mountain operations can also depend on avalanche mitigation.

For current ticket details, confirm prices, reservation requirements and pickup arrangements directly with Jackson Hole Mountain Resort. The resort has described ticket pickup boxes outside the Tickets & Guest Services building and Mountain Sports School building in Teton Village, but check that these arrangements apply to your visit.

You can drive from Jackson to Teton Village via Wyoming Highway 390 and Highway 22, or use the START Bus, which provides transportation between the Town of Jackson and Teton Village. For a broader look at town transport, this guide to getting around Jackson covers ways to plan local trips.

The resort describes the Stilson Lot, also called the Village Road Transit Center, as a free parking option about 7 miles from Teton Village, with a heated transit center and restrooms. Parking is not allowed on either side of residential roads in Teton Village or Granite Ridge, so use designated parking rather than roadside spaces.

Mountain weather and operating conditions can affect lift service, so confirm current conditions and schedules with Jackson Hole Mountain Resort before you leave. If you’re driving, check road conditions for the route through Wyoming Highway 390 and Highway 22 as well.

For START Bus service, consult the current information from the Town of Jackson. Schedules and transportation details can change, and the available service may depend on the time of year.
