Cache Creek
The Cache Creek and Greater Snow King Trail Systems on the Bridger-Teton National Forest have the most dense concentration of trails in Jackson Hole. Running, cycling, hiking, and horseback riding options are just minutes from town.
Be prepared to share-the-trail as the first mile near the trailhead can be crowded at certain times of day. Even with the heavy use this area receives, wildlife is abundant and includes moose, bear, mountain lion, deer and many bird species. Make sure to pay attention to your surroundings and be prepared to encounter wildlife on the trail.
