Rute

1. The hike up Bunsen Peak is an unforgettable one! From the open flats of the trailhead, we will start up through intermittent forest and meadow, with excellent opportunity to view wildlife, birds, and seasonal wildflowers. As we continue to grind uphill, the views of the Gallatin Range and the surrounding valleys grow more and more spectacular. The final section of the 1,300ft vertical gain brings us through scree and talus slopes, reminding us of Bunsen's origin as a volcanic remnant. As we reach the summit, we will come upon an old fire lookout, which provides an excellent porch for lunch. After taking in the panoramic views and re-energizing, we have the option of coming back down the same trail we came up, making for a 4 mile day, or adding another 3 miles by going down the backside of the mountain. The longer option is much less trafficked and switchbacks down the east side, around the foothills of the peak, and back to the trailhead.

About Yellowstone National Park

Yellowstone National Park, across Wyoming, Montana and Idaho, is widely seen as the first national park, a plateau of geysers, canyons and wildlife.

Yellowstone, established in 1872 and widely regarded as the first national park in the world, covers a high volcanic plateau mostly in north-western Wyoming. Beneath it lies a vast volcanic caldera that heats the ground and feeds more than ten thousand hot springs, geysers and steam vents. Old Faithful, which erupts about every ninety minutes, is the best-known geyser, and Grand Prismatic Spring is ringed with bands of orange, yellow and blue-green colour.
