String Lake Footbridge

Highlight • Bridge

This attractive wooden footbridge crosses a narrow stream that connects String Lake to Jenny Lake. This is a great place to take photographs of these two bodies of water and the rugged peaks that tower over them. The footbridge is a nice spot to sip some water and take in the views as you circumnavigate Jenny and/or String Lakes.

There is a shuttle boat service that takes you across the lake from the main Jenny Lake area to its western shore. Right from these docks are trailheads for two of the most popular spots in Grand Teton National Park: Hidden Falls (just .5-miles away), Inspiration Point (just 1-mile away), as well as the trail that travels into Cascade Canyon, which takes you deep into the backcountry. This is a great option if you want to eliminate an additional 2-miles (4-miles round trip) from the hike to the western shore from the main Jenny Lake area. During the peak summer season boats run every 10-15 minutes daily. There are no reservations required; you just purchase either round trip or one way ticket at East Boat Dock at the main Jenny Lake Area. Fare prices and more information can be found here: jennylakeboating.com/boat-trips/shuttle-service

Cascade Creek

Highlight • River

The path to Hidden Falls leads through Cascade Creek with views of the small waterfall and Cascade Canyon. There are several places where you can take a break. The path is steeply uphill in places, but is easy to walk and is popular with many hikers.
