Signal Mountain campground map

map of signal mountain campground, Grand Teton National Park.: map with roads and campsites

Looking at the map you would think that all the campsites along the shore have great views, but most have a bit of a view of Jackson Lake and the mountains:

campsite at Signal Mountain: campsite with picnic table and firering, surrounded by trees, lake slightly visible in background

Maximum 30 feet for trailers, RVs and motorhomes. (Larger RVs should check out Gros Ventre campground.)

Loop 3 does not allow generators.

Notice that some sites, not just for motorhomes, have electric hookups and are more expensive. A couple of sites have full hookups.

It is faster from almost every campsite loop to walk to the amphitheater for a ranger program/campfire program than to drive and try to find parking.

NPS photo biking multi-use path: various cyclists on pathway with mountains in backgroundIt is safer to enjoy a bike ride on a designated bike/roller blade/walk path like the teton multi-use pathway, than on the road/highway with drivers looking at scenery instead of you on your bike, and there is an 8 mile long pathway from South Jenny Lake to the Moose Visitor Center (please walk your bike in the parking lots). The pathway goes all the way into the town of Jackson. Pets (except guide dogs) are prohibited and the pathway is closed from dusk to dawn for wildlife and public safety. Grand Tetons biking
