Life is a little strange in Three Forks. If you love the weird and offbeat, there’s enough to see in Three Forks to fill the camera storage on your phone! As you enter town, you’ll see a herd of horses on a distant hill. But those aren’t real horses; they are the Bleu Horses! They are made of steel and positioned along Highway 287 as a gift from local artist Jim Dolan. Once you enter town, you’ll see the Sacajawea Hotel, a notoriously haunted (yet stunningly beautiful) hotel that was built in 1910.
One of the best reasons to check out Three Forks is the Lewis and Clark Caverns. These caves have the largest known limestone caverns in the Northwest, and they are only accessible by guided tour. If you want to explore above ground, the caverns are within Montana’s first (and arguably best) state park. There are ten miles of hiking trails within the park with views of gently rolling hills and lush forests.
