Before arriving at one of Yellowstone's entrances, you will pass through (or stop in) one of the excellent Gateway Towns on the way. The term "Gateway Town" refers to the small towns that are located outside of the park's five entrances. They are the last towns that you will pass through before entering the park at one of Yellowstone's entrance gates, hence the term "Gateway" Town.
Millions of visitors each year pass through these towns on their way to Yellowstone, and a great number of them stop at these mountain oasis' to enjoy local cuisine, shopping, and activities. It is these towns where many outfitters, guides, ziplining, and whitewater rafting companies are located as well. A variety of lodging accommodations are available in the Gateway Towns and are great places to stay during Your Yellowstone Vacation, and you are sure to find a lodging accommodation that meets your style and budget approval.
