The Helena Walking Mall, right outside the DoubleTree downtown, is the heart of Helena’s charm. Stroll through unique shops like Birds & Beasley's and Montana Book Company, or grab a bite at The Windbag Saloon & Grill or Big Dipper Ice Cream.

On the tour, you will learn about Montana’s incredible history and get a better feel for some of the community’s most prominent landmarks. You will find yourself cruising down the Historic Walking Mall with a view of the Guardian of the Gulch (fire tower), passing by the Cathedral of St. Helena, and even taking a look at the State Capitol Building!

Named by Meriwether Lewis in his journal entry on July 19, 1805, Lewis called this canyon “the most remarkable cliffs that we have yet seen”. The Lewis and Clark Expedition passed through the spectacular Missouri River Canyon, remarking on how the towering 1,200-foot high cliffs seemed to close upon them like gates. They viewed bighorn sheep along the narrow shelves and perpendicular cliffs, common wildlife seen today. The Gates of the Mountains are located 17 miles north of Helena off I-15 and they offer boat tours!
