Route description
Wyoming Highway 296 is a 45.96-mile (73.97 km) long scenic highway in northern Park County. Highway 296 begins its western end at U.S. Route 212 (Beartooth Highway) fourteen miles southeast of Cooke City, Montana. WYO 296 travels southeasterly as it winds through the Shoshone National Forest and through the Absaroka Mountains and then passes through Dead Indian Pass. After almost 46 miles, WYO 296 reaches its eastern end at Wyoming Highway 120, 17 miles north of Cody.
Sunlight Creek Bridge is the highest in Wyoming. Spanning across sheer cliffs, this award winning bridge is worth a visit. From the bridge, you can catch a glimpse of Sunlight Gorge.
