Welcome to Yellowstone Summit participants (and anyone else who landed here.)! Here you will find links to the myriad of things to do near Yellowstone National Park and information about the towns around Yellowstone to stay and play.
The video of my talk from the 2023 Yellowstone Summit is below.
When you get outside the park, you are likely to encounter fewer people and more wilderness. Additionally, there are things you can’t do inside Yellowstone’s boundaries (whitewater rafting, for example) that are easy to do near Yellowstone.
As wonderful as Yellowstone is – and it is wonderful! – there is so much more to the Greater Yellowstone Ecosystem. I encourage you to explore the world’s first national park and then explore beyond its boundaries, too!
