About Hoback River Area
Within the Hoback River Area lies an abundance of recreational opportunity and amazing scenery waiting for you to enjoy. Driving south of Jackson 15 miles and heading east on Highway 191, you will find yourself driving through one of the most beautiful canyons in the surrounding area. Winding through this canyon is the designated Wild and Scenic Hoback River where crystal clear water lends itself to world-class fishing, early-season boating and peaceful camping. Off of Highway 191 to the north lies the Granite Creek drainage. This scenic valley is home to the designated Wild and Scenic Granite Creek which winds it's way from the Gros Ventre Wilderness down through the mountains until it's rocky junction with the Hoback River. The Granite Creek valley provides miles of trails for hiking, horseback riding, snowmobiling, and cross-country skiing. Also nestled at the head of the valley where the Gros Ventre Wilderness begins, is the Granite Creek Campground and Granite Creek Hot Springs as well as the beautiful Granite Falls. Enjoy a scenic drive and a soak in the hot springs during the fall or take the valley by dogsled to reach those hot waters in the winter. Year-round opportunities await those looking for adventure in the outdoors.
