About this place
This scenic and peaceful drive through large stands of conifers provides plenty of opportunities for wildlife viewing as well as panoramic views of the Teton Range and Jackson Hole Valley.
One of the prettiest drives in the park, Signal Mountain Road is located just about a mile from the Signal Mountain Lodge. This 5 mile drive (10 miles round-trip) switchbacks up a tree-lined paved road to the top of Signal Mountain Summit. Once at the top, you will be treated to beautiful views of the Teton Range, Jackson Lake, and the Snake River, as well as the Teton Valley below.
The drive begins just about a mile from Signal Mountain Lodge and there is a large sign marking the beginning of the road. The road is narrow so drive slowly and enjoy the scenery. Black bears and mule deer are frequently seen in the Signal Mountain area. Once you get to the top, it's a dead-end. You will arrive at a parking lot, where you will see the East View Overlook, with views of the Jackson Hole Valley below. You can then walk up the paved path to the West to get to Jackson Point Overlook where you will see gorgeous views of the Teton Range, including Mt. Moran. Wildflowers are abundant here in Summer, and Fall colors are gorgeous.
Please note that this road is closed in the Winter months, and trailers and RV's are prohibited.
