From Dinosaurs To Burgers, MONTANA Has A Trail For Everyone

Montana Dinosaur Trail CREDIT Visit Montana

Take a walk back in time following the largest footsteps in history and discover an exciting and fun adventure along Montana’s Dinosaur Trail. This statewide trail is made up of 14 locations with a wide range of opportunities to explore and learn about the state’s prehistoric residents, including unique paleontology displays, interpretations, replicas, and actual skeletons of dinosaurs and other fossils found in Montana.

Trail sites also feature field digs that are open to the public. These family-friendly digs are hosted on active fossil sites and allow the public to get their hands dirty and participate in activities like fossil identification, surface mapping, rock removal and maybe even bone extraction.

While on the dinosaur trail, make sure to visit some of Montana’s best burger joints by following along the Southeast Montana Burger Trail. Taste mouth-watering burgers from some of the most unique small-town eateries throughout southeast Montana. Don’t miss a local favorite: the scrumptious French onion burger, covered in onion rings, caramelized onion, garlic aioli, and Swiss and Havarti cheeses. These friendly establishments will make you fall more in love with Montana, bite after bite.
