Teton Visitors Declined Only Slightly

The National Park Service Visitor Use Statistics office has announced that Grand Teton National Park hosted 3,289,639 recreation visits in 2020, the fourth highest number of recreation visits for one year in the park’s history.
During 2020 the park was closed for almost two months due to health and safety concerns related to the COVID-19 pandemic. Compared with 2019, total recreation visits decreased by only 3.4%, despite the pandemic.
The top year for visitation in Grand Teton was 2018 when 3,491,151 people visited the park. That means Grand Teton saw a decline of a little less than 400,000 from its best year.
Of the top ten national parks for recreational visits, Grand Teton National Park was the fifth highest. Great Smoky Mountains National Park near the East Coast maintained its lead as the most visited, followed by Yellowstone, Zion and Rocky Mountain National Parks.
