We went there 2 years ago, and the best time we had was by taking hikes. If you want to experience Yellowstone, don't stay on the road.
We've been lucky enough to even spot a wolf in the distance checking on a lone bison, and to be just on time for a geyser after an hour of walking.
Most people only stay in the park for a couple of days so they rush to all the touristy spots in their cars. Big mistake... Lodging in Yellowstone is cheap by scarce, so you need to book very early.
- ghaff 11y agoThis is pretty much the norm for any of the busy national parks. 90% of visitors never leave the roads and a few adjacent attractions and 90% of the rest don't get more than a 1/2 mile from the road. Even in places like Yosemite, you can pretty quickly get away from almost everyone surprisingly quickly.
