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's boundaries in summer, when wonderfully long days mean even 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 the cowboys that still roam here or ride a river on a rafting trip that's just your speed, from chill to thrilling. 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, be sure to recreate responsibly — our (unofficial) Ranger can tell you how —and enjoy the exceptional lodging and farm-to-table dining that 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 the peak of adventure in Montana's Yellowstone Country.
