Hiking around Bozeman is about more than just fresh mountain air—it’s about choosing the right kind of adventure for your style and schedule. With trails winding through mountain meadows, alpine lakes, and even Yellowstone itself, you’ve got plenty of options whether you’re after a quick nature fix or a full-on backcountry experience.

Suppose your idea of the perfect day is immersing yourself in a wide-open wilderness. In that case, the Lamar Valley Full Day Hiking Adventure is a standout. Known as “America’s Serengeti,” this area is one of the best spots in Yellowstone to see wildlife while trekking across classic big-sky landscapes. It’s a full-day commitment, but the payoff is unforgettable.

Prefer variety and a splash of water to go with your trail time? The Two Lakes Kayaking and Hiking Full Day Combo with Lunch gives you the best of both worlds. Paddle across glassy alpine waters, then trade your paddle for boots to explore nearby trails. It’s a great pick if you like a little bit of everything and want a slower-paced adventure with plenty of scenery breaks.

If you’re short on time but still want something special, consider the Private Hiking & Hot Springs From West Yellowstone. This trip pairs a guided trail experience with a relaxing soak in natural hot springs—perfect for those who want to balance activity with relaxation.

Whether you’re chasing wildlife, mixing kayaking with hiking, or capping a hike with a hot spring dip, Bozeman’s hiking tours make it easy to find the right fit.
