Things to Do
Take a hike!
Here are some of our favorite trails for anyone looking to get out and hit the trails. We do live in the mountains so expect elevation gain on all hikes. Also, be prepared and carry bear spray and hike in a group. The button below takes you to the website of a local company that rents bear spray. -Ousel Falls-Easy 1.6 mile scenic out-and-back hike just outside Town Center -Uplands Trail-Moderate 2-mile loop overlooking Town Center...this is where we got engaged! -Albino Lake-Easy to moderate 5-mile out-and-back hike up Taylor Fork south of town. -Lava Lake-Moderate to advanced 6-mile out-and-back scenic hike through the woods to a stunning lake north of Big Sky.
Try local brews
Beehive Basin Brewery is one of our favorite local watering holes. We like to drink Green Bridge but try a flight while you're there.
Check out the Farmers Market
Every Wednesday in Town Center there is a local farmers market. If you are in town on Wednesday, September 4 we recommend walking through the market. It is full of local vendors and it is a great place to grab some food on a Wednesday.
Catch a Free Concert
Every Thursday there is a free concert in Lenn Hill Park in the Town Center. Lots of local food trucks are there to grab dinner. We recommend bringing a chair or blankets for the lawn.
Hit the Links
Play 9 or 18 at Big Sky Golf Course. Advanced tee times are recommended!
Explore Yellowstone
If you are traveling in and have never been to Yellowstone, we highly recommend giving yourself an extra day to spend time in Yellowstone. Big Sky is only 45 minutes from the West entrance and it is well worth the drive! Get up early to beat the crowds and increase your chance of seeing wildlife. Plan on spending a full day in the Park whether you drive yourself or book a tour.
Have fun
