Grebe Lake Trail (U.S. National Park Service)

A more direct route than the Howard Eaton Trail, this trail follows an old fire road through meadows and forest, some of which burned in 1988.

Safety notes: At the lake you can connect with the Howard Eaton Trail or return the way you came.

Trailheads: 3-½ miles (5.6 km) west of Canyon Junction on the Norris–Canyon Road.

This is a 6.2-mile (9.9-kilometer) there-and-back trail that begins and ends at the same trailhead.

Entrance fees may apply, see Fees & Passes information.

This trail is in the central part of the park, with the trailhead west of Canyon Village.
