•Hebgen & Quake Lakes; 58 miles – Hebgen Lake offers excellent boating and fishing opportunities in a spectacular setting. Just a few miles below Hebgen Dam lies Quake Lake formed by a large 7.5 magnitude earthquake in 1959. A visitor’s center is open Memorial Day to Labor Day.

•Virginia & Nevada Cities; 118 miles – Just 15 miles past Ennis, these one-of-a-kind towns offer a glimpse into Montana’s rough-and-tumble past. Built in the 1860s during the gold rush, many buildings still appear much the way they did 140 years ago.
