In-Depth Information
Visitors travel the boardwalks around Yellowstone's geothermal features.
Day 1: Bozeman
Start your trip in Bozeman, equal parts college town and mountain town. Fit in a trip to the
Museum of the Rockies
to see where dinosaur guru Jack Horner does much of his work.
Throw in a hike up the
M
or
Drinking Horse Mountain,
just northeast of town, and end
with a shopping stroll on historic
Main Street.
Enjoy a game of pool, a local brew, and
an excellent meal at the popular
Montana Ale Works.
Bed down for the night practically
across the street at the
Magpie Guest House.
Day 2: Bozeman to Red Lodge (about 174 miles)
Start your morning with a quick jaunt up
Peet's Hill,
then walk a few blocks for breakfast
at the
Western Café.
Head east toward Red Lodge, a much smaller but equally historic
ski town. Along the way, stop in
Livingston
to peruse
art galleries,
look for celebrities, or
even fish or raft the Yellowstone. Continue on to
Big Timber
for a late lunch at the
Grand
Hotel.
Arrive in Red Lodge in time for a quick meal at the
Red Box Car
and a downy bed
at the historic
Pollard Hotel.
