Teton View Lunch Ride

Scenic Horseback Trail Ride to Anns Ridge with Grand Teton Views

Experience one of Jackson Hole’s most scenic horseback adventures on a guided trail ride through the Bridger-Teton National Forest. This full-loop journey begins with a gentle ascent to Anns Pond, a tranquil mountain setting where wildlife sightings are common, including moose often seen grazing or drinking at the water’s edge. Surrounded by alpine forest and fresh mountain air, the ride offers a peaceful introduction to the natural beauty of the region.

From Anns Pond, the trail continues its gradual climb toward Anns Ridge, where riders are rewarded with a well-earned lunch break and sweeping 360-degree views of the surrounding wilderness. At the 8,000-foot summit, guests can take in breathtaking panoramas of the Grand Teton Range, with snowcapped peaks stretching across the horizon and open skies creating a truly unforgettable backdrop.

After time at the summit, the route follows the scenic Anns Ridge Loop before descending along the historic Bryans Flat logging road, completing a varied and visually rich circuit back to Willow Creek headquarters. Throughout the ride, the changing terrain ensures new perspectives of forests, meadows, and mountain landscapes at every stage of the journey.

Wildlife encounters are a highlight of this experience, with frequent sightings of Rocky Mountain elk, mule deer, Shiras moose, red-tailed hawks, and even bald eagles soaring overhead. Each moment on the trail offers an opportunity to connect with the living landscape of Jackson Hole.

With experienced wranglers, well-maintained horses, and a strong focus on safety and comfort, this guided trail ride combines adventure, wildlife viewing, and panoramic mountain scenery into one of the most memorable outdoor experiences in the Grand Teton region.
