The Twin Creek Trailhead provides access to a horseback riding and hiking trail along the West Fork of Twin Creek to the Shoshone National Forest. The site also provides fishing access for the South Fork of the Shoshone River. The elevation at the trailhead is 5,840 feet and rises to 6,880 feet in approximately three miles to the forest boundary. The trailhead facilities include an information kiosk, horse trailer parking and toilet facilities. Deer, elk, antelope, moose, grizzly and black bear and mountain lion may be seen in the surrounding area. Twin creek trail is closed from January 1 - April 30 to protect wintering big game. This trail crosses the South Fork of the Shoshone River. Cross with caution during spring runoff as conditions may be dangerous. This is grizzly bear country, so be bear aware!
Getting there
The trailhead is located 23 miles southwest of Cody on Wyoming State Highway 291 (the South Fork Highway). Turn right at the Twin Creek Trailhead sign.
1991–2020 averages from the nearest NOAA station, 1 mi away — not measured at the facility itself, and elevation can make a real difference over that distance.
