The Peak of adventure.

Montana's Yellowstone Country

The Perfect Place for Summer Adventure

Yellowstone is more than a park. In Montana, it's an entire country — with adventure to be had at every turn. Experience the sublime landscape north of the park in summer, when longer days mean more time to discover it all: world-class recreation, charming mountain towns and pristine wilderness.

Enjoy a fresh-air hike to an alpine lake or fly-fish a blue-ribbon trout stream against a backdrop of mighty mountains. Hit the trail on horseback like cowboys still do here or ride a river on a guided rafting trip. Drive scenic roads over mountain passes and through spectacular valleys, stopping to visit small towns with fascinating history, friendly faces and lively events from farmers markets to music festivals to rodeos and more.

However you choose to adventure, exceptional lodging and farm-to-table dining await after a full day of exploration. And when the sun does set, sit back and enjoy the clear night sky brimming with more twinkling stars than you’ve ever seen.

This summer, reach your peak of adventure in Montana's Yellowstone Country.
