Central Montana trip planner

Stretching from Glacier National Park in the north to Yellowstone National Park in the south, Central Montana remains home to wide-open, windswept landscapes, largely unchanged since Lewis and Clark's 1805–06 expedition. Nature lovers and outdoor enthusiasts will find plenty to keep them busy here--from hiking, cycling, and skiing to fishing, horse riding, and bird-watching. Often referred to as the birthplace of Montana, the former fur-trading outpost of Fort Benton is the right place to visit to explore the cultural and natural history of the American West. Named after a series of neighboring waterfalls, Great Falls remains the region's largest city. With outdoor recreation, six dinosaur attractions, and a number of interesting museums, it is easy to bring the family together on a Central Montana vacation.
