And yes, the hardest part is going home. Thanks, Austin-Lehman!"

Montana: Big Sky Family: Cowboys, Canyons, & Campfires

Austin-Lehman has been guiding parents and kids on adventure vacations in Montana for over 20 years. If there's a formula for family fun, we've nailed it. What better playground than Yellowstone, Big Sky and Paradise Valley?
It's day 5 of your Montana family vacations. Your 13-year-old son, Sam, sits proudly atop his mount, sporting his new cowboy hat (a last minute purchase in Bozeman). He rides upfront next to your guide, Jack, a 4th generation wrangler. Sam is all smiles – he couldn't be happier, making his way on horseback up a mountain beside a real-life cowboy! Something tells you the new hat might be a permanent fixture on Sam's head for the rest of the summer…
Welcome to your Montana family vacation. Hike into the Yellowstone national park backcountry, along streamside trails and across ski runs carpeted in flowers. Bike along gently rolling country roads past postcard-perfect farms and ranches and raft a playful stretch of the beautiful Yellowstone River. And when night falls, relax and recharge with a soak in a soothing hot spring and Big Sky Country’s tasty cuisine.

A few more reasons why you've gotta go…
- Beehive Basin: it's sensory overload as you soak your feet in an alpine lake surrounded by blue sky, granite spires and wildflower-studded hillsides.
- Our insider's access: known only to locals (and of course our guides), we'll take a dip in a hidden hot spring that tumbles into the Gardiner River.
- The Yellowstone River: rafting it means navigating the longest free-flowing river in North America.
- The cowboy songs and stories: they just sound better while you're sitting tall in the saddle on a ride up Dome Mountain.
