About

Gros Ventre (pronounced 'grow-vont') is Grand Teton National Park's largest campground, located in the southeast part of the park closest to the town of Jackson. The campground occupies a scenic setting among sagebrush, grasses, cottonwoods, and blue spruce with views of Blacktail Butte and the iconic Teton Range. The nearby Gros Ventre River provides excellent fly fishing and wildlife photography opportunities. The area is a prime location for wildlife watching, with bison, moose, mule deer, elk, wolves, and both black and grizzly bears frequenting the river corridor. Mormon Row and its historic John Moulton barn are a short drive away. Blacktail Butte Trail offers a 7.3-mile out-and-back hike with wildflowers and Teton views, while the butte's limestone walls attract sport climbers. The campground features flush toilets, potable water spigots, two dump stations, and food storage lockers. Each site includes a picnic table and fire ring with metal grate. Firewood and ice are available at the camp office. There are no showers or wifi; the nearest public wifi is in Jackson, about 10-15 minutes away.
