Phenomenal views! Fantastic play areas!
Picture postcard trails! Snowmobiling in Northwest Montana is an exhilarating
experience! Pristine forests blanketed with snow during the winter and early
spring months provide a playground for all levels of snowmobile riders. Novices
enjoy the groomed trails while experts utilize the trails as access points to
play areas that challenge even the extreme Sno-Cats!
Set in the Kootenai National Forest,
amenities available in Troy and nearby Libby, access from both eastern and
western population centers is available from US Highway 2.
The Montana legislature passed a law that
requires snowmobilers visiting Montana to pay a fee to support the grooming of
snowmobile trails. A visitor who plans to ride his/her snowmobile in Montana
must purchase a non-resident temporary snowmobile use permit. Permits will be
available December 1 from Montana Fish, Wildlife & Parks license agents, some
snowmobile equipment retail businesses, hotels and motels and other business
serving snowmobilers.
