Best Hikes in Montana
Some of the best hikes in Montana are located in the Crazy Mountains. This isolated mountain range is one of the most photgraphed and recognized ranges in Montana. Appearing to rise out of nowhere, the Crazy Mountains are centered around Big Timber Peak and Crazy Peak. Crazy Peak is the fourth tallest mountain peak in Montana, rising to a staggering 11,214 feet. Many of the locals around Crazy Peak consider summiting it to be a kind of a "right of passage," and anyone will tell you it is one of the best hikes in Montana (though only for the experienced hiker).
Big Timber Peak stands proudly just to the right of Crazy Peak. And just to the right of Big Timber Peak is Big Timber Canyon, in which Montana Cabin Rentals is located. Big Timber Canyon Road winds its way through the canyon and ends at Halfmoon Campground, which is the trail head of some of the best hikes in Montana.
Just below Halfmoon Campground is a very special 160 acre parcel of land which is leased exclusively for guests of Montana Cabin Rentals. We offer the best hikes in Montana, fishing on private mountain stream access, even hunting on 10,000+ acres of private land (reserve early, limited availability). But the best part about it all is that after your perfect (and most likely exhausting) day of Montana style recreation and hiking, you get to come home stay in the rustic luxury of one of our cabins, affording all the comforts of your home away from home.

Best Hikes in Montana (Most Difficult)
For the experienced hiker or mountain climber, there are plenty of challenges in the Crazy Mountains. Some of the best hikes in Montana will leave you utterly exhausted, and carry with them intrinsically a certain amount of danger and risk. We don't recommend summiting mountain peaks in the Crazies unless you know what you are doing. They aren't called the "Crazy Mountains" for nothing, after all. You won't find a side walk or even a well-maintained walking trail once you step into the territory of summiting one of the Crazy Mountains' peaks. You'll be on your own and will be truly blazing your own way in the wild.
