Rating hikes I went on near Bozeman, MT ⛰️🌲
🥾 Palisade Falls:
I love palisade falls so much and I visit it every time I’m in the area. It isn’t a super long hike and there is a good amount of people there to where I am not afraid of there being bears present. The waterfall is so beautiful and if anyone is planning on going to Bozeman this is a must see.
🥾Gallagator Linear Loop:
I really like this trail but I was walking with two dogs that aren’t use to leashes from living out in the country. And this trail had soo many people on it to where it was difficult but luckily I kinda found a side trail from this through some trees that no one else was on but it was along the other trail still. Very beautiful and gives a great view of all of Bozeman.
🥾 Drinking horse mountain trail:
Both of my dogs this day were being very bad so I only went half way through this trail before turning around but I have done the whole thing a couple times. It is very beautiful at the top but the trail as first is so so narrow and this trail had an insane amount of people on it and everyone seems to be on a bike or have a dog.
🥾 Westshore lake loop trail:
This trail is around Hyalite reservoir which is also a great place to visit in Bozeman. This trail had quite a few people too. But at the same time it makes me feel more comfortable about there not being bears. This trail has a lot of side trials that go to the reservoir and it gives a good look of the other side of Hyalite and is so beautiful.
