Hayden Valley

Hayden Valley is an incredible spot in Yellowstone where you can observe its captivating wildlife. This grassy valley, located to the north of Yellowstone Lake, is a popular destination for animals like bison, elk, coyotes, and grizzly bears. It’s fascinating to note that Hayden Valley boasts the largest gathering of free-roaming bison during their rut season. While many tourists enjoy the scenic view from the Grand Loop Road, Fishing Bridge-Canyon, and lookout points along the way, some adventurous souls prefer to take it a step further by stepping out of their vehicles and immersing themselves in the valley’s natural beauty.
