Horseback Hunting Trips

Kids love Montana riding
vacations too!

Horse pack trips in Montana provide an unforgettable adventure into one of Montana's finest primitive wilderness areas. Montana pack trips are great for family vacations, nature photography enthusiasts, or anyone who just needs to get away from it all.

Our location in southwest Montana offers some of the finest horseback riding in the Rocky Mountains in moderate, yet mountainous terrain spanning 20 square miles. Our Montana pack trips take you through two beautifully forested mountain ranges with vast open fields blanketed with wildflowers. During your Montana riding vacation you'll be breathing the mountain fresh air, viewing elk, deer, moose, antelope, and other wildlife in their natural habitat, and sleeping under the stars like you've never seen them before!

Ah! What's not to love
on a Montana pack trip?

Best Season for Horse Pack Trips in Montana

The best times to see abundant wildlife during Montana riding vacations are June and late August. June features the calving season for elk, deer, and moose. Late August features the beginning of the elk bugling season. You will find the cooler day temperatures more comfortable during horse pack trips in Montana. There will be less insects to annoy you and the cooler night temperatures won't bother you while you're snug inside your sleeping bag.
