Grand Teton National Park on pace to see busiest year since 2021
News and Adventure from Glacier National Park
Grand Teton National Park hosted more than 3.5 million recreation visits between January and October, already making 2024 the second busiest year on record. The busiest year on record is 2021, with almost 3.9 million recreation visits for the entire year. Four of the last ten months have been the second busiest months.
“Even though the year isn’t over yet, the data shows us that Grand Teton National Park continues to resonate with millions of visitors,” said Superintendent Chip Jenkins. “As visitation trends change, we will need to figure out how to respond to and manage those changes for the good of visitors, park resources, and our local communities.”
When and how people visit the park continues to change. Some of the largest increases in recreation visits occurred during the shoulder seasons, including April, May, and October. Arrivals increased at the Moose Entrance while wildfires affected U.S. Highway 26/287 east of the park. And more visitors hit the trails this summer than ever before. Trail use increased by about 16% compared to 10 years ago and by about 4% compared to five years ago.
In an effort to better understand changing visitation and how people use the park, we asked the public over the summer for their input about desired conditions and visitor experiences. Park staff are reviewing and analyzing the comments and will use that information to ensure visitors continue to have high-quality experiences in the park.
Visitation figures are a valuable tool used by the NPS to manage public enjoyment of Grand Teton National Park while monitoring resource conditions and the quality of the visitor experience. The NPS Stats website has more information about visitation statistics at Grand Teton and all national parks.
