This route takes you to three of Montana’s most beloved state parks, with plenty of time to enjoy each one to the fullest. Feel free to make it a longer road trip and add your own favorites for the ultimate adventure.
Bannack, MT 59725, USA
Bannack is Montana's best-preserved ghost town, which has claimed state park status since 1954.

The city even served a little time as Montana's territorial capital until that title went to Virginia City. Bannack State Park has a campground if you'd like to spend your first night here.

Lewis & Clark Caverns Entrance Trail, Montana 59759, USA
This was Montana's first state park, earning the title in 1938.
While the park is open year-round, you can only take the guided cave tour from May - September. It's worth it!
Lost Creek State Park, 5750 Lost Creek Rd, Anaconda, MT 59711, USA
This park is truly a nature lover's paradise. Gray limestone cliffs and pink and white granite formations rise 1,200 feet above the canyon's narrow floor, and the beautiful Lost Creek Falls sits in a corner at the end of a hiking trail. This is a great place to stretch your legs and spend some time in nature before ending your journey.
