Lamar Valley Wolf Watching & Wildlife Photography
The Lamar Valley is the best place for animal viewing in all of Yellowstone. While several areas have groupings of buffalo and other species, none match the diversity that you will find in the Lamar Valley. One of the most popular attractions in this part of the Park is the wolf packs. During the winter months, Yellowstone wolf tours are our most popular attraction, and that always means traveling to what is known as the Serengeti of Yellowstone.
The Lamar Valley is also one of the few areas of Yellowstone National Park that are open year-round. That also makes it a prime reason for any winter tour, and any Yellowstone private tour, to begin in Gardiner, one of the best entry points to the area. In combination with the diverse wildlife, you will also get to experience the Roosevelt Arch, where the park was originally granted.
Full Day Guided Tours of The Lamar Valley
In addition to wolves, you also have a better chance of seeing pronghorn, elk, bison, bears, deer, and coyotes. The amount of diversity in the area makes it the prime spot for anyone wanting a wildlife tour of Yellowstone. The one drawback, and the reason why many people opt to utilize a guide, is that it is a very expansive area. Many of the animals are a long distance away, and require a keen eye to spot and optics to properly see. If you are interested in getting a wildlife tour of the Lamar Valley, please contact us today.
