This is the longer of two loops which includes the Southside Trail and the Red Beds trail. You can also include the Valley View section which would add almost a mile.

This route will take you past the beautiful Phelps Lake and into a portion of Death Canyon. It is an option to continue in the canyon as a multi day adventure but the route is plotted as a day hike out and back. Use necessary precaution in winter for avalanche safety and awareness.

Start at the Jenny Lake Ranger Station and head west following a paved trail. The paved trail eventually disappears to become a dirt, easy-to-follow trail all the way to Hidden Falls and Inspiration Point. When you arrive at the boat harbor, follow signs and trails to Hidden Falls as you pass over bridges and thundering cascades.

The hidden gem of the Tetons. Mineral deposits give this lake its beautiful turquoise color.From the Lupine Meadows trail head follow the same path to Amphitheater Lake. At mile 2 is a sign to turn right towards Amphitheater Lake.Important: At the first switch-back turn on the Amphitheater Lake trail you must continue straight. The trail is not well traveled and you might think it isn't even a trail. The trail becomes more visible and is littered with cairns. The final approach is a scramble up a moraine. Be careful of slippery and loose rock up this steep rock field. There is no obvious trail in the moraine, so you must look for the cairns. Camp spots and picnic areas surround the lake. The massive peak you will be staring at is a rare vantage point of the Grand Teton. Enjoy

Most of this trail is a steel staircase and is quite steep down into the Grand Canyon of Yellowstone. There is a lookout point at the bottom with unmatched views of the canyon.
