The Grand Canyon of the Yellowstone is a stunning natural wonder located in Yellowstone National Park, Wyoming. Stretching approximately 24 miles long and up to 1,200 feet deep, this canyon boasts breathtaking views and vibrant colors caused by hydrothermal alteration. Formed by erosion from the Yellowstone River rather than glaciation, the canyon showcases the power of nature and offers visitors a glimpse into the geological history of the area. With its towering cliffs, cascading waterfalls, and unique rock formations, the Grand Canyon of the Yellowstone is a must-see destination for nature lovers and adventure seekers alike.

Inspiration Point is our personal favorite lookout of the canyon and falls. Take a pit stop at Canyon Village for a bite to eat or some ice cream.
