The best glamping in Montana.

In Montana, forested peaks rise above snowy glaciers. Raging rivers bisect wide-open plains, all under an impossibly starry sky. This is Big Sky Country, and it lives up to its name.

In addition to the Big Two—Glacier National Park and Yellowstone—Montana has 54 state parks, plus expansive national forests. In total, you’ve got 33 million acres of public land just packed with camping opportunities.

The natural place to start exploring is Glacier National Park, the “Crown of the Continent” and home to Montana’s most spectacular mountain scenery. More than 1,000 tent and RV park sites sit within striking distance of glaciers and alpine lakes. When you’re ready to get active, hop on the 700 miles of hiking trails that wind through mysterious forests and across windswept ridges.

Then, there’s Yellowstone. Both the Northeast and North entrances are in southern Montana, placing you close to Mammoth Hot Springs and Tower Fall. Don’t stop at there, though; Montana has plenty of other secrets to discover.

Whether you’re RV camping or backpacking, get up close and personal with Montana’s rich cultural past. Follow in the path of Lewis and Clark with a tent camping trip on the Missouri River, or head to Great Falls to see where Native American tribes once traveled the plains.

Everywhere you go, Montana State Parks provide campsites ranging from luxurious to primitive. You can also choose from ranch camps or cabins, which keep you cozy year-round.
