Things To Do
Gates of the Mountains Boat Tour
Enjoy scenic views on a 120-minute cruise through the Gates of the Mountains on the Missouri River. Learn about Montana wildfire history and maybe spot a big horn sheep!
Blackfoot River Brewing Co
Check out our personal favorite brewery in downtown Helena! No food here but enjoy some popcorn and great brews.
Mt Ascension Gastropub
This place has the best views of Mount Helena, downtown Helena, and Mount Ascension. We recommend making the trek upstairs to take in the sights from the outdoor patio.
The Hawthorn Bottle Shop and Tasting Room
Check this place out for a great wine selection in the heart of downtown Helena.
Ten Mile Creek Brewery
This brewery is located in the walking mall of downtown Helena. It right next door to The Hawthorne.
Brothers Tapworks
This place has an extensive tap list. You will find beer from throughout Montana but also many other states.
Park Avenue Bakery
Park Avenue has great pastry options for breakfast. Give the sausage rolls a try. They are delicious. If your sweet tooth is aching, the earl grey chocolate cake is a must.
Mount Helena City Park
Hiking trails in the city limits for all hiking abilities.
Mount Ascension
Another great hiking spot with great views of Helena.
Big Dipper Ice Cream
A local favorite! Looking at our ice cream fans, specifically Jack O' and Doug!
Yellowstone National Park
Yellowstone National Park is 177 miles from Helena from the West Yellowstone entrance. Arguably the best place to see wildlife and tourist's making questionable decisions near said wildlife. Text Taylor for her recommendations for a full Montana National Park trip.
Glacier National Park
Taylor's favorite Montana park! Stop by Flathead Lake and Bigfork on your way up and enjoy small-town charm in Whitefish. Text Taylor for her recommendations for a full Montana National Park trip.
