Things to Do

-----THINGS TO DO IN MONTANA-----

Glacier National Park

One of the prettiest national parks!! Definitely worth a visit if you have time to make a full Montana trip. It's just over a 4 hour drive from Butte, so it's a trek, but totally worth it.


Yellowstone National Park

Another incredible national park, and slightly closer to Butte (2.5 hour drive from Butte). Home of old faithful and gorgeous wildlife!


Outdoor Activities

If you are excited about any specific outdoor activities, there is almost definitely a good fit nearby while you are in the area. Possibilities include: hiking, whitewater rafting, laid-back river tubing, horseback riding, fly fishing, mountain biking, backpacking, camping, glamping, hot springs, etc..


Cassie's Art Show (Bozeman)

If you are in the Bozeman area at all, Cassie has a new art show hanging at Biome Slow Craft! The show looks incredible and is right next door to our favorite bakery Wild Crumb :)
