Harriman State Park lies within an 11,000-acre wildlife refuge in the greater Yellowstone Ecosystem. Moose, Elk, and Sandhill Cranes are common, as is North America’s largest waterfowl, the Trumpeter Swan. Known as one of the best fly-fishing streams in the nation, the Henry’s Fork meanders for eight miles through Harriman. Over 20 miles of trails are available for hiking, biking, horseback riding, and cross county skiing. Guided horseback tours are offered by a park vendor.
The Harriman Yurts are each equipped with two futon style bunk beds, woodstove, table and chairs, and propane appliances for light and cooking. Maximum capacity – Six (6) people. We do not supply propane canisters, cooking utensils, or linens. In the summer, food and cooking utensils need to be stored inside your vehicle because we are in bear country. Wood is provided; there is a year round water spigot outside and an outhouse located between the two yurts. The yurts adjoin Harriman’s extensive cross-country trail system and are only a short distance from the world famous Henry’s Fork of the Snake River. A 200 yard ski in is required in winter, and in summer overnight guests can park near the yurts and hike in 20-100 feet depending on the yurt.
