7 Playfully Peculiar Towns In Montana

Montana is a colorful state known for its vast open landscapes, an expansive sky, magnificent mountain ranges, and a portion of Yellowstone National Park. However, it is in Big Sky Country’s small towns that its true personality is revealed. There is something quirky and unusual to enjoy in many of the gorgeous towns throughout the state. When you combine these peculiarities with the natural surroundings and historic sights, they make for must-visit stops as you make your way through the Treasure State.

Three Forks

Three Forks lies approximately half an hour from Bozeman and is one of the stops along the route of Lewis and Clark and the Corps of Discovery. The incredible Missouri Headwaters State Park is where the Madison, Gallatin, and Jefferson Rivers join to form the Missouri River. The Missouri River is the longest in the U.S. Apart from the water, there are several trails to enjoy, tipis to camp in, and history to learn about inside the park.
