Spotlight: Lamar Valley in Yellowstone Park

Coming to visit Yellowstone for wildlife watching? Then you must put Lamar Valley on your to-do list. Just 1.5 hours from the West Yellowstone entrance (located in the Northeast corner), the trip to Lamar Valley offers unparalleled Yellowstone sites & stops along the way.

Lamar Valley is home to elk, bison, coyote, grizzlies, and most famously, wolves. As the Number 1 Yellowstone destination for wolf viewing, we recommend you rise very early to catch them in action as the sun rises. Nearby Lamar Ranch (built in the early 1900s) is the station for Lamar Rangers and offers a variety of classes on the local history and animals of this unique area in Yellowstone National Park.

This is a great spot to visit on your West Yellowstone vacation in the Spring and Summer months. Visit us at FaithfulStreetInn.com for all your West Yellowstone lodging needs.
