Gateway to Wonder
Montana's Yellowstone region encompasses the northern gateway communities and the spectacular landscapes surrounding the world's first national park. From the thermal wonders of Yellowstone itself to the sweeping beauty of Paradise Valley and the rugged Absaroka-Beartooth Wilderness, this region offers some of the most diverse and dramatic scenery in the American West.
The town of Gardiner sits at Yellowstone's original north entrance, marked by the iconic Roosevelt Arch. Livingston, a historic railroad town on the Yellowstone River, serves as the cultural hub of the region. Between them stretches Paradise Valley, 50 miles of breathtaking ranch country framed by the Absaroka and Gallatin ranges.
