Amphitheater Lake Trail, Mountain trail in Grand Teton National Park, Wyoming.
The trail spans 5 miles through varied terrain, climbing 3,000 feet in elevation to reach both Surprise Lake and Amphitheater Lake at 9,698 feet.
The path traverses lands where Native American tribes established seasonal camps and hunting grounds throughout the Teton Range for thousands of years.
The trail system represents the National Park Service commitment to maintaining natural spaces while providing structured access points for outdoor recreation.
Hikers should begin early in the morning from Lupine Meadows parking area, carrying adequate water and layers due to significant elevation changes.
The final quarter-mile segment connects two alpine lakes, with Amphitheater Lake positioned beneath the grand walls of Disappointment Peak.
