Montana is breathtaking from any angle. But there is a pretty amazing trail up in Lincoln County near Libby that will show you a side you’ve never seen before. Just be forewarned if you’re afraid of heights: It involves a swinging bridge that isn’t for the faint of heart.
Not only is it one of our state's easiest hikes, but there's stunning scenery around every corner.

The original bridge was built by the Forest Service to access forest fires across the Kootenai River. When it was destroyed by a flood in 1948, it was rebuilt on concrete piers. The Libby Dam prevents the area from flooding.
