Victor and Driggs Idaho are surrounded on three sides by some truly amazing mountains. The Tetons and the Big Holes offer great recreational opportunities. Hunting, Fishing, Horseback Riding, Mountain Biking, Hiking, Backpacking, Camping and Trail Running literally surround the valley.
In just minutes from anywhere in the valley you can find yourself in the Bridger-Teton National Forest, great trails leave from every major canyon all the way around the valley. North Leigh, South Leigh, Teton, Darby, Fox Creek, Moose Creek, Pole, Horseshoe, and many more all offer excellent trail heads. All these access points make Teton Valley a great place to recreate, and while I love to hike, fish, ski, bike, lately I have been doing a fair amount of trail running. Whether you are in for an all day endurance effort in the Tetons or a quick after work run, Teton Valley has a trail for you.
A couple of weeks ago I did an 18 mile run from Darby Canyon to Teton Canyon, using the Teton Crest Trail to link up the two drainages. It was a great run and amazing to get that far back in the Tetons. This afternoon I did a quick after work run on the Aspen trail just East of Driggs, it’s nice to escape the computer and cell phone for at least an hour a day.
