The park features a 42-mile scenic loop drive as well as several secondary roads open to private vehicles. The Teton Park Road runs along the base of the Teton Range from Moose Junction to Jackson Lake Junction; access the road at either end or at Moran Junction via Togwotee Pass. Jackson Lake Junction also is the terminus of the John D. Rockefeller Memorial Parkway, which connects Grand Teton with Yellowstone National Park. Most park attractions and lodging can be accessed from this road, which also has several pullouts and overlooks. Teton Park Road connects to the Jenny Lake Scenic Drive at North Jenny Lake Junction; this pretty road runs along the eastern shore of Jenny Lake and offers spectacular Teton Range views before looping back to Teton Park Road north of South Jenny Lake. The steep, five-mile Signal Mountain Summit Road, starts on Teton Park Road about 1.5 miles south of Signal Mountain Lodge and climbs 800 feet to a pair of scenic overlooks. Whether you go by car or bike, you'll enjoy great views of the Teton Range, Jackson Hole Valley, and Jackson Lake before coasting back down the way you came.
