Our history is one
of people and land.
Few things make travel more exciting than learning the stories of the land you visit. Whether your interests lie within the stories of the Nez Perce, Montana’s State Capitol in Helena, the buffalo jump at Madison Buffalo Jump State Park, Mountain Men and Fur Traders of the past, or the National Historic Landmark at Missouri Headwaters State Park, Yellowstone Country has a story, and a state park, for any and every type of history lover.
Get to know the history of
the place we call Home.
These state parks provide information about the people who have called Yellowstone Country home, the towns they built, and the work that they cultivated. Through these histories, while visiting our state parks, and through your travels, we hope you catch glimpses of the most important character: Montana itself.
