Montana has changed very little since the first pioneers made their way here in the late 19th century. Visitors are rewarded with the same towering peaks, windswept plains and glacial lakes, and there still more wild animals than people. This is ‘Big Sky Country’ with 150,000 square miles of wide-open spaces and vast wilderness preserves. It’s not hard to imagine the dinosaurs whose bones lie in Montana’s famous fossil beds, walking through these huge landscapes.
Two of the state’s most popular areas of natural beauty are its famous national parks. To the north, Glacier National Park, known as ‘the Crown of the Continent’ boasts more than a million acres of majestic peaks, waterfalls and mountain meadows. To the south, Yellowstone is chock full of wildlife, epic vistas and geothermal wonders. The Yellowstone River also flows into Montana, a state known for its world class fly-fishing.
Montana is also the perfect place to immerse yourself in frontier history. Preserved gold rush towns like Virginia City and Nevada City give you the chance to ride a stagecoach, quench your thirst at a traditional saloon bar or shop for a new Stetson. And at one of the state’s many dude or guest ranches, you can wear your new cowboy hat whilst taking a trail ride or enjoying a chuckwagon supper. At Little Bighorn Battlefield National Monument, you can also learn about Custer’s Last Stand against the victorious Lakota, Northern Cheyenne, and Arapaho tribes.
If you want to learn more about the indigenous population of Montana, you can visit one of the many reservations, take a tour of Fort Peck Assiniboine and Sioux Culture Center and Museum or experience one of the largest Native American gatherings in North America during the annual North American Indian Days festival in Browning. Follow in the footsteps of Lewis and Clark and set out on a journey of discovery.​
