Getting to Yellowstone


By Car
Driving by automobile is by far the most popular way to get to Yellowstone.
In the summer 5 major roads lead into the park.

They are:
– North: enter via Gardiner on US 89
– West: enter via West Yellowstone on US 20
– South: enter via Jackson and US 89
– East: Enter via Cody on US 16
– Northeast: Enter via Silver Gate and Cooke City on US 212

In winter, there is only one road open to automobiles. All other entrances are open to over-snow travel, at least for now…
– Gardiner to Cooke City open in winter
