3 Montana Destinations for Fall Break Fun

The beginning of the school year can be a chaotic time for any family. The increased number of activities, school projects, and bus schedules can become a little hairy. By the time October or November rolls around, you’re ready for a little fall getaway to enjoy some time together and breathe. As you’re planning your fall excursion, be sure to consider these three Montana destinations, picked especially for you by our Journey Rent-A-Car crew.

1. Yellowstone National Park

You can never go wrong with a trip to Yellowstone National Park. Even if you’ve been there a thousand times before, the wildlife, the trails, and the views never get old. Yellowstone is just over two hours from Bozeman, MT, which makes an easy day trip or weekend adventure for your family.

2. Museum of the Rockies

Located right in Bozeman, MT, the Museum of the Rockies is a great attraction if you want to get away without having to travel too far. The museum features historical exhibits, a planetarium, and a special discovery zone created with kids in mind. Plus, dinosaur lovers will be thrilled to see their renowned collection of fossils, including the bones of an actual T. Rex.

3. Palisade Falls

Does a scenic drive in a van rental sound like the perfect way to spend a fall Saturday? Then enjoy the journey to Palisade Falls. You actually won’t have to travel far outside downtown Bozeman to enjoy waterfall views. Plus, you can pack a picnic lunch and just enjoy the colors of the season.
