The hike from Jenny Lake to Cascade Canyon and back is just over 20 km. The glacier-carved mountain valley is beautiful.

Cascade Canyon is a glacier-caved canyon that provides relatively easy access into the Teton backcountry. This out and back trail to the Forks of Cascade Canyon is an amazing way to get into the mountains without the significant elevation gain characteristic of this mountain range. As you hike along this trail you are granted fantastic views of the iconic Grand Teton, as well as Mount Owen, and Teewinot. There are also ample opportunities to see wildlife like moose, bears, marmots, and pikas along this great section of trail. When you reach the Forks of Cascade Canyon, where the trail splits, you can either turn back toward Jenny Lake or continue onward to Lake Solitude and the Paintbrush Divide or toward Hurricane Pass and the Alaska Basin.
