Local Attractions

The Flathead Valley is located in the heart of the Rocky Mountains and offers endless adventure. To the northeast is the west entrance of Glacier National Park, which offers stunning views of glacially carved peaks, clear mountain rivers and streams, rafting, fly fishing, hiking, biking, wildlife, and more. Montana is ranch country, and there are still plenty of wide-open spaces for horseback riding and guided tours. The valley gets its name from the lake that fills it, Flathead Lake, the largest freshwater lake in the Pacific Northwest. 70 miles long and 30 miles wide, it offers boating, fishing, camping, kayaking, paddle boarding, sailing, boat tours, and any water based outdoor activity you can think of. Beyond flathead there is also Whitefish lake just northwest of the town of Whitefish and many other rivers and lakes to explore. In the wintertime, the valley has two different ski resorts: Whitefish Mountain Resort with 3,000 skiable acres and 11 chairlifts, and Blacktail Ski Resort nestled above the head of Flathead Lake. Needless to say, you will never be bored in the Flathead Valley. Here are some of our favorite things to do in the valley.
