Box Creek

Box Creek is a 24.8-mile out-and-back trail located in Wyoming. This backcountry route offers hikers an extended wilderness experience through remote terrain. The out-and-back format means you'll cover approximately 12.4 miles to the turnaround point before retracing your steps on the return journey. As a full-day commitment, Box Creek suits experienced hikers prepared for distance and self-sufficiency. The trail traverses Wyoming's natural landscape, providing solitude and uninterrupted views typical of the region's backcountry. Pack adequate water, supplies, and navigation tools, as services along the route are limited.
