Nothing can prepare you for Flathead Lake

Montana National Parks

Coming to Montana, you know you’ll see iconic prairie land, Rocky Mountain peaks, and spectacular wildlife. But nothing prepares you for Flathead Lake.

This is the largest natural freshwater lake west of the Mississippi, with some of the cleanest water and an otherworldly clarity and color. Flathead Lake is near Glacier National Park and flanked by the Mission Mountains—with their huge waterfalls. Plan to spend several days here paddling and exploring. There are countless excursions to be had, such as boating out to Wild Horse Island.

For anyone wanting a fresh travel experience with incredible water, plan your next adventure to Flathead Lake in Montana.
