Fodor's Expert Review Lone Mountain Ranch
750 Lone Mountain Ranch Rd., Big Sky, Montana, 59716, USA
Three-night to one-week packages include seasonal activities such as naturalist-guided trips to Yellowstone, cross-country ski passes, and kids' camps in the summer. The ranch, known for its Nordic Ski Center, maintains 85 km (51 miles) of groomed trails for classic and skate cross-country skiing. An additional four trails totaling 10 km (6 miles) are for snowshoers only. Some activities cost extra, such as horse-packing trips to alpine lakes, fly-fishing, and downhill skiing. Lodging is in historic cabins surrounding an elegant log lodge. Partake of a night of backcountry sleigh rides, dinner, and entertainment.
