Want to stretch your legs and take in some fresh mountain air? Check out Holland Lake Falls! It’s a short, scenic hike with lake views, and a gorgeous waterfall.
If you’re looking for a quick adventure while in Missoula, take a hike up “The M” at the University of Montana! The trail is short but steep, with eleven switchbacks leading to a big white “M” overlooking the entire city. The views of the valley and Clark Fork River are totally worth the climb. It’s a local favorite and a great way to take in a bit of Montana before the celebration!
If you’re planning to stay a little longer, we highly recommend visiting Glacier National Park. From turquoise lakes to towering peaks and endless trails, it’s a truly breathtaking spot that we always love exploring. Definitely worth carving out a day (or two!) if you can.
