Overview

Big Sky, Montana is a wintertime wonderland. From December to April the region is draped in beautiful snow and ice, and there are many activities available for our visitors to partake in in the great outdoors.

One of the best ways to see the area in winter is to snowshoe, an ancient activity that allows us to walk on top of snow like a winter hare. Snowshoeing is a great activity for any ability level, and affords intimate encounters across the meadows, forests and river bottoms that comprise this stunning landscape. Keeping warm is also important, and this safari will provide a hot meal in West Yellowstone, followed by an educational tour of the Grizzly and Wolf Discovery Center, a unique opportunity to view bears, wolves and many other animals who can no longer live in the wild. The combination of outdoor excursion and wildlife makes for an incredible day of adventure in the Big Sky region.

Your exact route and itinerary will be determined by your interests, current wildlife sightings, and current weather and road conditions. Our guides are all highly experienced, with thousands of hours in the field, and will expertly tailor your safari to you and your group.
