USATravelPal.com, a comprehensive travel website in progress, provides comprehensive travel information on over 1500 exciting destinations throughout the United States, including 26 in the beautiful northwestern state of Montana. Known as The Treasure State, Montana offers several spectacular tourist spots, including Glacier and Yellowstone National Park as well as the Big Hole National Battlefield, the Lewis and Clark National Historic Trail, and Flathead Valley.
Located near the northwestern corner of the state, Glacier National Park is not to be missed! This breathtaking park also extends across the border into Alberta, Canada. Here you'll find some spectacular mountainous terrain formed millions of years ago by the flow of glaciers through the area. The park also features two thousand lakes and a thousand miles of rivers. Glacier offers dozens of splendid hiking trails and boat tours as well as a series of historic hotels throughout the area.
Great Falls, Montana's third largest city, is another exciting tourist destination. Here you'll find the C.M. Russell Museum Complex, the Paris Gibson Square Museum of Art, the Children's Museum of Montana, and the Mansfield Center for the Performing Arts. In addition, Great Falls is the locale of the Lewis and Clark National Historic Trail Interpretive Center, where tourists can learn about Lewis and Clark's historic pioneering exploration of the region.
