Heart Lake/Snake River Trail The Heart Lake - Snake River Loop is a diverse hike in the southern half of Yellowstone featuring incredible natural history, thermal activity, wildlife viewing opportunities, soaking in hot springs, and an ascent of Mount Sheridan.

The ecosystem is the largest remaining continuous stretch of mostly undeveloped pristine land in the contiguous United States, considered the world's largest intact ecosystem in the northern temperate zone.

Fees & Permits Fees need to be paid for the park entrance and to secure a backcountry itinerary. Entrance fees are paid on arrival whereas backcountry permits need to be paid and applied for at the Backcountry office prior to your trip beginning.
