Where is Teton Valley?

​Teton Valley Idaho lies directly west of Grand Teton National Park, and is part of the Greater Yellowstone region, rich in scenic wonders and magnificent wildlife.  Driggs is centrally located in Teton Valley, about 30 miles from Jackson Hole, Wyoming at an elevation of 6,229 ft. The valley's history is rich with stories of Native American councils, fur trapping rendezvous, homesteaders, farmers, ranchers, mountain explorers, and more recently skiers, fishermen, climbers, hikers and painters! The Teton Mountain Range, east of Driggs, is home to Grand Teton National Park and the Jedediah Smith Wilderness Area, which can be accessed on foot or horseback. The Big Hole Range lies to the west of the valley adding a mountain skyline to vibrant sunsets. Meandering through the middle of the valley is the Teton River, creating an environment essential for the Sandhill Cranes and other migrating birds who pass through Teton Valley on their journeys. Not to mention fishermen in the summer, and moose in the winter.

Daily flights from many major cities fly into Idaho Falls Regional Airport (1 and 1/2 hours away) or into Jackson Hole, WY (45 minutes away).  Driggs has a small airport with a 7300'x75' runway that can handle corporate jets and offers a full-service FBO, Warbirds Museum, restaurant, and heated hangars.
