Kid-Friendly Activities Near the Rugged Horizon Wedding Venue

Kids love to roam in Montana’s wild open spaces. Below, we collect some of our favorite activities near Rugged Horizon for children. They include birding, fishing, splashing in the water, and slurping huckleberry milkshakes.


Ninepipe National Wildlife Refuge

Let your children explore this diverse wetland habitat. See how many different species of birds they can identify — perhaps swans, eagles, hawks, mallard ducks, or pheasants. Ninepipe Reservoir has fishing access for young anglers, but please be sure to buy a joint Flathead Reservation Use and Conservation Permit and Fishing Stamp and to follow all applicable regulations.

Ronan Park

During the hot summer months, kids love to splash in the sprinklers and dip their toes in the creek that runs through the Ronan Park. If they don’t want to get wet, they can dawdle along the shaded trails or climb on the playground equipment.
