Yellowstone National Park isn’t just a great spot to visit during the summer months, when the crowds are thick and the weather is (for some) best. You may actually find you like the park more during the height of winter. Here are some of the things you can do if you book a winter package at either Old Faithful Snow Lodge or Mammoth Hot Springs Hotel, two park lodges open December to February.

Search for Wolves Among the Winter Landscape
A Winter Wolf Discovery experience is bookable for five days. Led by a Yellowstone Forever Field Educator, the one-of-a-kind program takes you out onto Yellowstone trails in search of gray wolves via snowshoeing, hiking and cross-country skiing.
See the Park by Snow Coach
If winter hiking and similar recreation isn’t your thing, you can stay relaxed in a snow coach, with tours taking you to some of the park’s best scenery, such as the Grand Canyon of Yellowstone, with minimal walking on your end.
