Each season provides a different experience in Wyoming. Summer is the best time to visit the state. Climate is moderate at this time of the year. Grand Teton and Yellowstone National Parks are open to cars in summer. In summer, tourists can enjoy disc golf, hiking, and horseback riding, biking, rafting and kayaking. In winter, Wyoming offers skiing, snowboarding, snowmobiling, dog sledding, paragliding, and ballooning. Winter is the time for heli-skiing, snowcat skiing, snowshoeing, Nordic skiing, sleigh rides, hot spring sightseeing, and much more.
The spring season is a beautiful time to visit Wyoming too. Wildlife is aplenty in Wyoming and viewing animals is more common during spring, as they come down to the snow-free valley to feed. Fall brings with it a huge crowd of elks. It is the time for hunting. However, hunting is not allowed in the National Parks.
There is a variety of accommodation available in Wyoming, ranging from luxury spa resorts, ranches, log cabins, hotels, motels, lodges and houses for rent. There are direct flights to Jackson Hole and Cody.
