Local Paddling
We are very fortunate to live within an hour of a variety of great river and open water paddling opportunities.
From the Missouri River to the Yellowstone River, Montana provides an enticing network of river, streams and reservoirs for all paddlers. Our favorite Montana river resource is Paddling Montana. This handy guide provides excellent practical and historical information on 32 rivers in Montana.
Some of our favorite paddles close to home include:
