Wyomingites love adventure almost as much as they love food. Combine the two during this restaurant hike in Wyoming, where you’ll find stunning views from atop a mountain and finish your day with a delicious meal overlooking a stunning alpine lake.
Editor’s Note: Restaurants at Signal Mountain Lodge are closed for 2020.
There’s no place on earth quite like the Tetons, and thankfully, Wyomingites can experience this national treasure any time.

While most everyone has hiked Cascade Canyon and Taggart Lake, there are endless other trails that are GTNP hidden gems - like the Signal Mountain Trail.

Most people just drive up Signal Mountain for the view - but anyone willing to make the 8 mile loop hike will be rewarded with amazing views.

All the way up the mountain, you’ll be able to spot the Tetons in the distance, across the impressive Jackson Lake.

The view at the top is breathtaking - and you’ll be 7,720 feet in the air! You’ll really deserve a break at the summit after making the trek from the trailhead.
