Hi all! My fiancé and I (both 26, from Florida) are planning our honeymoon in Jackson, Wyoming for July 2026 and I’ve put together a tentative 6-day itinerary. We'd love some input from locals or anyone who knows the area well—especially if there’s anything you'd recommend we add, remove, or rearrange!
We’re both in good shape, but we’re not regular hikers and only hit the trails maybe once a year. Plus, we’re not super accustomed to high elevations. That’s why I left off Delta Lake—it looks stunning but also pretty strenuous and technical based on reviews. I did include Schwabacher even though it seems it is over hyped so I'm open to other lesser-known places to watch sunrise.
Does the pacing of the hikes and rest days look realistic for non-local beginners? Anything that feels like too much or not worth it? Or something unmissable we left out?
