Grand Teton and Yellowstone Horse Pack Trips
Experience a unique Western adventure with Teton Horseback Adventures. We offer 3- to 6-day guided horse pack trips into the Greater Teton and Yellowstone backcountry. Unlike others, we don’t lease horses, ensuring you a safer and more familiar ride. With about 150 horses and mules, many of which we’ve raised and trained ourselves, you can trust their expertise. As a family-run business, we host private or small groups of up to 6-8 people, providing experienced guides and even our hardworking dog, Penelope. There’s nothing like exploring the Tetons!
