The jagged Teton Mountain Range, rising abruptly above the glacial lakes of a magnificent valley, attracts nearly four million visitors a year. Jenny Lake, a glacial lake nested in this valley, is one of the most picturesque in the Grand Teton National Park, and the scenic Jenny Lake Campground, set along the lake is one of the best camping spots in the region. Recreational possibilities in the area are endless making this a superb base for exploring the park. There are great hiking trails that start close to the camp, including the String Lake Trail (3.3 miles roundtrip) and the Inspiration Point Trail (2 miles out and back via boat). In addition, kayaking, canoeing and rafting beneath these rugged peaks provide an unbeatable experience.
Jenny Lake Campground is one of six campgrounds in Grand Teton National Park. This is a relatively small, tent only campground, with 50 sites. Due to its great location, Jenny Lake Campground tends to fill quickly. Reservations are not accepted and sites are usually full during summer months by 11:00am, so early arrival is advised. The campground is open from late May to late September, weather permitting. Grizzly bears and black bears frequent this camp – so keep a clean site!
Facilities in the campground include flush toilets, drinking water, picnic tables, and fire grills. Showers and a laundromat are available a short driving distance from the camp in the Colter Bay Village. Jenny Lake Campground is located off the Teton Park Road. This road intersects with Hwy 89 five miles north of the Moran Entrance Station.
