Pedaling Paradise

Biking

Go the distance in the open air on a cycling trip through Yellowstone National Park or along the All-American Beartooth Highway, one of the most scenic stretches of roadway in the U.S. Or, get off the road and into the mountains on our extensive trail system of single tracks and family-friendly routes. Touring the terrain by bike is one way to log miles of Montana magic.

Yellowstone Country is quickly becoming the fat biking/snow biking capital of the Northern Rockies, so, really, you can pedal paradise in any season.

Even though it is incredibly important for all bicyclists to wear helmets, Montana state law does not mandate the use of helmets for bicyclists of any age. Please click HERE to see the section of the Montana code regarding bicycle use.
