Fall in Yellowstone Country

Back to adventure.

Fall is the time to zoom out and experience Montana in full color. Hit the refresh button north of the park in Yellowstone Country, where the great outdoors deliver autumn at its finest. Fish a famous river and have it all to yourself. Hike or bike an astonishingly quiet trail. Take a scenic drive through Paradise Valley where golden fall hues paint the prettiest landscape you’ll ever lay eyes on. Stargaze the clearest night sky you’ll ever see and maybe even catch the northern lights while you’re staring at the Milky Way.

Yellowstone Country’s captivating basecamp communities are bursting with personality, local vibes and honest-to-goodness hospitality. Downtown streets are lined with cafés, coffee shops, food trucks, breweries and distilleries, plus museums and galleries, theaters and live music.

The connection is better over here in Montana’s gateway to Yellowstone National Park, and fall flies under the radar as one of the best times to experience it. Just remember to travel and recreate responsibly. Plan ahead, know before you go, be flexible, and play it safe.
