Tripadvisors tilnærming til anmeldelser
Hver Tripadvisor-anmeldelse går gjennom et automatisert sporingssystem før den legges ut. Dette systemet samler inn informasjon som svarer på følgende spørsmål: Hvordan, hva, hvor og når. Hvis systemet oppdager noe som muligens strider imot retningslinjene våre for fellesskapet, blir anmeldelsen ikke publisert.
Når systemet oppdager et problem, kan en anmeldelse automatisk avvises, sendes til anmelderen for bekreftelse eller gjennomgås manuelt av teamet vårt av innholdsspesialister. Disse spesialistene jobber døgnet rundt for å opprettholde kvaliteten av anmeldelsene på nettstedet vårt.
Teamet vårt sjekker hver anmeldelse som er lagt ut på nettstedet og bestrides av fellesskapet vårt for ikke å møte retningslinjene våre for fellesskapet.

We visited during a non Elk time. That was fine. Ben was working there. (He is a chamber of commerce employee but is stationed there). We looked around at all the displays and walked to the outside viewing area which I imagine is stunning in winter. We completed our junior Naturalist books. (Yes we are adult nerds). Ben was the person we got when we went to turn our books in. He was outstanding. He explained some history with the local people. He answered all of our questions. He let us hold antlers and pelts. He made this visit so much better and informative. He truly loves his job and is extremely knowledgeable. We want to come back for the antler auction. lol. He gave us some recommendations for our visit to Jackson. We just had an absolutely amazing experience. I only wish there were more people like Ben who truly appreciate what they do and enjoy teaching others. ❤️

A well-organized and beautiful place. The indoor area is well-maintained, with friendly and knowledgeable staff answering questions. They have exhibits with pictures and information about elk. Unfortunately, I didn't see any elk since it's not the season for them to be around, but I can only imagine how much better this place is during winter. I really appreciated my visit 🤍.

We just happened to stop in and were happy we did! Thoughtful displays, beautiful artwork, fun interactive stations, and a breathtaking view from a platform of the preserve area. We liked it so much we brought our grandchildren to see it the next day and they liked it too. Worth a visit!

We had the chance to drive past the stunning landscape of the National Elk Refuge, a vital wildlife conservation area located in Jackson Hole, Wyoming.
This refuge plays a crucial role in preserving the natural habitat for a variety of wildlife, particularly the large elk population. The refuge is home to around 7,500 elk during the winter months. These elk migrate from the surrounding highlands to the refuge to find food and shelter. Covering approximately 24,700 acres (10,000 hectares), the refuge provides ample space for wildlife to roam and thrive.
Although we didn't have the opportunity to see the elk during our visit, the view of this magnificent conservation area was incredibly beautiful.
The valley, with its expansive green mountains forming the perfect angle against the blue sky, created a breathtaking panorama that we couldn't take our eyes off. The true beauty of nature was right in front of us, a sight we will always remember.

We went on one of the sleigh rides and it was super fun! We loved being able to see some of the elk! The man inside the visitors center was absolutely AMAZING, I wish I would have gotten his name. He made sure to get out all of the pelts and horns that my son wanted to see and touch. My son had the best time being able to experience the "touch" of the items!

Very nice and informative tour of the preserve. Learned a little history regarding the beginning of the refuge and the elk.
The sleigh ride stops nice and close to the herd. We were able to see them move around, hear them mewl, and prance around.
We saw a few eagles and heard the coyotes nearby.

The sleigh tour of the elk national wildlife refuge exceeded our expectations. The open air sleigh tour provides a great viewing platform that allows close proximity to the elk. The sleigh drivers provide a great briefing, very informative and very personable.

Great initiative and program. You can drive through some parts yourself to see some wild animals including bighorn sheep. However the sleigh/wagon ride is a must. Get up close with the Elk herds and really informative.

A super nice place to observe tons of elk. Its a semi natural environment as they are fed sometimes due to the volume of animals and the fact the city has encroached on their natural habitat.
A worthwhile visit.
Great guides.

Wow ! Put this place first on your list of things to do in Jackson Hole ! The visitor center is amazing and the staff are very friendly. We did the sleigh ride amongst the elk herd and loved it being so close to such amazing animals !

I'm not an expert on this area but since no one else is responding I will give you my thoughts. I believe all of the elk and bighorn sheep will have vacated the area. The best time to visit the Elk Refuge will be January / February. I have been in the area in August and September and there was very little wildlife in the refuge. (When I visited in January, it was fantastic)

Can you please tell me where you which company you went through for the horse drawn cart? I have been looking online and all I can find is sleigh rides in winter. We are going in a month and would LOVE to visit the elk refuge! Thank you!

go to the national elk refuge website and book

Is there snow there now to do the horse drawn sleigh ride thru the elk refuge?
Skrevet 8. desember 2017
Enough snow for this activity is 50/50 before December 25th. You could luck out with a good early winter there or not enough. The peaks will have snow to make it picture perfect but enough for a sleigh ride. Planning an early trip before Janurary and thinking there is going to be enough snow for anything or everything is always a gamble.

Four of us will be visiting 11/11/17 till 11/18/17. Will the refuge be open then? Also, my husband is highly allergic to horses. Is it possible to tour the refuge without horses?
Skrevet 1. november 2017
It is a self-drive around the refuge. I don't remember seeing any horses. The art museum on the highway opposite the refuge is REALLY worth the entrance fee.
Skrevet 2. november 2017
We are coming in September
What is the cost just to drive thru the area?
Skrevet 20. august 2017
Go to the visitors center first. It's on the north side of town heading towards the airport. It's free and has a viewing deck and rangers to answer questions. The information there is fantastic....we learned so much. As they said, it's all free.
Skrevet 20. august 2017
Is this a place that we do a "self tour"? We will have just driven from Bryce Canyon in Ut. and will need something to do the evening we arrive in Wyoming...can we get out of the car and walk around, of course taking care not to come close to the animals. Is there a high possibility of seen Elk and Bison towards the end of June, or is that mostly in the winter months?
Thank you in advance for your help.

They may have some tips for you.

You can check at the visitors centre but they will most likely tell you to drive out to an area called Kelly off to the right on road out toward the airport, they will give you a map. An SUV car is best as you have a higher view and when you see a herd, bison maybe mobs of up to 100 stop and see which way they are walking then drove to a view point on the road, do not get out of your car. Good luck.
