Things To Do

The Wedding Website of Claire Schmitz and Ryan McNamara
Below are some of our favorite things to do in the Bozeman and Big Sky area - from where to eat, hike, or just fun things to do! If you want more ideas for Bozeman or around Montana (Yellowstone, Grand Tetons, Jackson Hole, etc.) feel free to text Ryan or Claire! Claire has way too many favorites to include them all on this list from her time living there but is always happy to give recommendations!

Bozeman Spirits Distillery

121 West Main Street, Bozeman, MT 59715

One of our favorite places in Bozeman - you can’t go wrong with anything on their menu! Claire’s favorite is the huckleberry pie (key lime pie) and Ryan’s is the old fashioned.

MAP Brewing Company

510 Manley Road, Bozeman, MT 59715

One of the best views of the Bridger’s from their patio and great beer!

Seven

113 East Oak Street, Bozeman, MT 59715

Our favorite sushi spot in town! The Alaskan role with smoked salmon is the best!

Montana Ale Works

611 East Main Street, Bozeman, MT 59715

One of our favorite more casual dinner spots! You can’t go wrong with anything on their menu but their truffle fries and meatloaf are some of our favorite things here.

Feast Raw Bar & Bistro

270 West Kagy Boulevard, Bozeman, MT 59715

A fancier dinner option - their brussel sprouts and espresso martinis are top tier!

BagelWorks

708 West Main Street, Bozeman, MT 59715

The best bagel spot in town - especially for breakfast!

Feed Café

1530 West Main Street, Bozeman, MT 59715

A great breakfast spot with outdoor seating- One of Claire’s favorites!

The Jump Restaurant & Bar

75770 Gallatin Road, Bozeman, MT 59718

Great food and atmosphere - on the way to Big Sky. Get the full western experience and stop in on a Wednesday night for swing dance lessons!

Downtown Bozeman

222 East Main Street, Bozeman, MT 59715

A must do if visiting Bozeman for the first time - lots of fun shops, restaurants and coffee shops along the main road!

College 'M' Trail

Trail to 'M', Bozeman, MT 59715

A short hike in town with great views of Bozeman! Challenge yourself and take the very steep 0.8 mile side to the top, or take the easier 1.5 mile walk. Both are great!

Drinking Horse Hill Trail

Drinking Horse Hill Trail, MT 59715

Another hike right in Bozeman (across the street from the M) - a little longer than the M but still a great hike with views of Bozeman and the Bridgers!

Lava Lake Trailhead

501-901 Cascade Creek Road, Gallatin Gateway, MT 59730

A little outside of Bozeman in the canyon on the way to Big Sky. A beautiful 5 mile round trip hike that follows a river with waterfalls and leads to lava lake at the top! One of Claire’s favorites around Bozeman!

Storm Castle Peak Trailhead

MT 59730

A moderate/difficult 5 mile hike between Bozeman and Big Sky - one of our favorites!

Sacagawea Peak

MT 59714

A harder hike (a little less than 4.5 miles) but one of our favorites! It’s the start of the Bridger range and provides a full 360 view. *keep in mind that service is limited in this area*

Hyalite Reservoir

MT

No shortage of things to do here! Cool off in the very cold alpine lake, walk on the trail around the lake or enjoy one of the many hikes surrounding the area! Some of our favorite shorter hikes in this area are grotto falls or palisade falls! ***Please note there’s no service in this area so please load directions and such before entering the canyon!

Palisade Falls

MT 59047

Easy and short hike to a waterfall in Hyalite - about 3 miles out and back

Grotto Falls

MT 59047

Another quick and easy hike to a waterfall in hyalite - about 2.5 miles out and back

Bozeman Hot Springs

Four Corners, MT 59718

A fun place to go if you need to relax after a hike or just want to see what it’s all about!

Peets Hill/Burke Park

429 East Story Street, Bozeman, MT 59715

A great walking trail through downtown Bozeman that overlooks the city - Claire loved walking here while she lived in Bozeman!

Cowboy Coffee Co.

25 Town Center Avenue, Big Sky, MT 59716

An amazing coffee shop in Big Sky - we love their breakfast sandwiches as well! Enjoy some coffee and a walk around Big Sky!

Wild Crumb

600 North Wallace Avenue, Bozeman, MT 59715

Great bakery close to downtown Bozeman!
