The Wyoming Office of Tourism and its Jackson Hole tourism partners are closely watching the coronavirus disease 2019 or COVID-19 and its potential impact on Wyoming’s residents and visitors. Currently, there are no reported cases in Wyoming and the risk to residents remains low.
In Wyoming, all national parks, state parks, national recreation areas and national historic sites will remain open. WOT will continue to monitor the coronavirus situation in Jackson Hole and the entire state and work closely with public health officials and the U.S. Travel Association to ensure the most accurate, updated information about public health concerns in Jackson Hole and across the U.S.
At this time, the United States government and local authorities do not have any advisories limiting domestic travel.
