RV rental Lost Creek State Park, MT: Motorhome rentals, camper van rentals and more

Lost Creek State Park has two signature hikes. The first is an extremely short, easy hike to the base of the falls. It’s less than a tenth of a mile from the parking lot and features an interpretive display. If you want to see more of the area, you can follow a much longer trail that starts at the parking lot, traverses northwest of the falls, and crisscrosses through forests and meadows. The trail passes an old mining cabin and gives you excellent views of the surrounding mountain ranges. You can go as far as you like, and make it as long as an 11-mile out-and-back if you have the time. The trail above the falls – and other trails near the park – are well-known by mountain bikers. The first part of the trail follows an old, wide mining road, but it eventually turns into single-track a few miles in. The gradual climb up makes for a moderately intense workout, which will be followed by an enjoyable descent back down to your camp. There are many ways for Lost Creek State Park campers to enjoy the park's wildlife. Bring some binoculars or telephoto camera lenses to spot the mountain goats clinging to the canyon walls and the bighorn sheep that occasionally pass through also. The small creeks in the parks are full of beaver dams, and you also stand a chance of seeing the furry engineers who built them. Anglers can fish for brook trout in Lost Creek; a fishing license is required for anyone 12 and older.
