How to Enjoy Christmas in Jackson Hole

Abandoned Moulton Barn on Mormon Row in the winter at Christmas time in the Grand Tetons National Park and Yellowstone National Park area. As the snow forms a thick blanket across the Tetons Range, wildlife becomes more visible and the scenery more dramatic than then the busy summer season.

The most wonderful time of the year is upon us! Christmas in Jackson Hole is a magical experience for all who live here and visit. Our wild west town dazzles in twinkling holiday lights and makes for an experience pulled out of a classic Christmas movie. The holiday spirit comes to life even further with traditions like a sleigh ride and the Christmas Tree Lighting at Jackson Town Square. Don’t miss out this holiday season, head to our small town and enjoy Christmas in Jackson Hole!

Town Square Tree Lighting

On November 25, join the Jackson Hole community to watch the town square glow with holiday color at the Tree Lighting at Jackson Town Square. The lighting ceremony is free to attend, with plenty of snacks and refreshments. This is a terrific way to ring in the holiday season and be treated to a special visit by Santa!

A Holiday Hike

Get bundled up this holiday season and take on Grand Teton National Park! The snow atop the mountains gives a magical glow to the park and makes for a perfect Christmas-time hike. The Taggart Lake Trailhead is relatively easy and allows your family to explore the winter scenery comfortably. This one-mile loop is home to a beautiful frozen body of water with mountains in the distance.

Holiday Ice Skating

While the snow falls in Jackson Hole, the small town truly becomes a winter wonderland! The JH Winter Wonderland Ice Rink is open throughout the holiday season. The rink hosts beautiful views of Jackson while you glide along the ice pond in the heart of downtown. Gliding along the ice will immerse you into the holiday spirit, with Christmas music softly playing in the distance and surrounded by twinkling lights.

Holiday Art Bazaar
