Missoula is an amazing city for nature lovers. Not only does a river run right through the middle of town, but you can enjoy quite a few hikes without even leaving the area. If you’re up for a bit of a challenge as long as it comes with some visually stunning views, you’ll definitely want to check out the majestic Mount Jumbo.
Due to the steep uphill climb to the top, the trail is ranked as difficult. Wait until you're a fairly experienced hiker to attempt it.
From the beginning, you'll have views of Lolo Peak in the distance. The climb starts gradually, but it gets steep quickly.
