Welcome to the Montana Scenic Loop

The Montana Scenic Loop is a spectacular scenic route through some of the West's last remaining wild country.

The Montana Scenic Loop is a beautifully wrapped gift. . .

Surrounding this treasure are remarkable layers of splendor, each a stunning surprise. . .

Follow the scenic highway and byways, through charming communities, and discover what the Blackfeet call the "Backbone of the World," the magnificent Rocky Mountains and the best scenic drive in the West!

At the heart of the 400-mile Loop is the Bob Marshall Wilderness flanked by the Great Bear Wilderness on the north and the Scapegoat Wilderness to the south. Surrounding this wild gem are four National Forests and a host of Wildlife Management Areas and National Wildlife Refuges. Beyond the forests are striking vistas—the Rocky Mountain Front, Glacier National Park, the Flathead and Blackfoot River Basins. Adding another layer to the beautifully wrapped package are the communities, each with their own distinct personality.

Life here is guided by nature. Breathtaking sunsets stretch over prairies that seem to go on forever. Snow-capped peaks form a backdrop for rolling hills. Swift streams tumble over rocky beds, while placid rivers cut through ancient inland seas. The sky is bigger, the vistas dramatic, and complete strangers wave hello.
