Winter in Yellowstone Wildlife Tour

Overview

Yellowstone Hiking Guides is a long-time, local tour operator that offers top-rated experiences in Yellowstone National Park. Our Winter Wildlife Tours start run from February to April. Winter in Yellowstone is a magical time. Be sure to bundle up in layers as we put wolves and other rare animals in the spotting scope. Use our binoculars to see foxes hunting in the snow and bison weathering the winter conditions. We pack the lunch, snacks, and the hot and cold beverages. Please allow us to host you at the highest level on one of our group tours. We pick up guests in West Yellowstone (6AM), Big Sky (7AM), and Bozeman (8AM). Top destinations in the Park include the Roosevelt Arch, the Lamar Valley, Mammoth Hot Springs terraces, and the Old Gardiner Road. We also drive through the scenic Paradise Valley, home to winter wildlife outside of Yellowstone National Park. We look forward to hosting you and your group to show you Yellowstone's winter wildlife and stunning scenic beauty.
