Located near the South Entrance to Grand Teton National Park, Jackson (
emerginghorizons.com/an-affordable-teton-detour-five-absolutely-accessible-jackson-freebies) makes a great stop on a Yellowstone-Grand Teton road trip. The Town Square — which is the focal point of downtown — is a good place to begin your visit. This small parcel is marked by four elk antler archways, and it’s one of the most photographed sites in town. The National Museum of Wildlife Art, which is located closer to the national park, is also worth a stop. Wrap up your visit with a drive through the National Elk Refuge, which is the seasonal home to the Jackson Elk Herd. Alternatively you can take a gander at them from the second-floor deck at the Jackson Hole & Greater Yellowstone Visitor Center. And if you’d like to spend the night, Homewood Suites has a nicely equipped accessible guestroom that includes a full kitchen, a separate bedroom and a bathroom with a roll-in shower.
