Great road trips typically have three things in common: good company, the scenic route, and a home-base that's small enough to be authentic, but big enough to offer amenities, adventure and good food. Billings, Montana contains all the ingredients for the recipe of a great road trip through Montana.

I wasn’t quite sure what to expect when I visited Billings Montana. I guess I thought it would be completely flat and maybe have good burgers. Man, was I wrong! I mean not about the burgers… but we’ll get to that. Billings blew me away with its variety of things to do, places to eat, and adventures to go on. Here are some of my favorites.

Billings is not only “Montana’s trailhead,” it’s also a great family-friendly destination with a lot of fun to entertain to the whole gang! We recently spent a weekend in Billings with our family and had a blast checking out the best Billings has to offer for young kids!
ZooMontana
The first stop on our Billings weekend was a visit to ZooMontana! The zoo is located 15 minutes southwest of downtown Billings. It’s a great, affordable way to spend half a day with your family.

Take it from us locals, when you visit Southeast Montana, there’s one activity that tops the Must Do List.
Just one thing, you are thinking…really? We know – there’s so much to do out here, that singling out just ONE thing must be impossible. Is this a joke?
Nope. We are sure we nailed it.

An hour of strenuous hiking burns about 400 calories; biking, close to 500; casual sightseeing around 200. That’s good news for people visiting Billings because you’ll need to stay active after exploring its exceptional and creative culinary scene. Wild mushroom bisque? A huckleberry hatch chili sauce burger? Indian bison Tacos? Custer’s Last “Stout” beer? And, that’s just a sampling. Did we forget to mention Billings houses the state’s largest gathering of award-winning microbrews. Get ready for good food, good drinks, and good times in Billings.
