Big Sky, Yellowstone National Park, and Paradise Valley

Trip Details

Itinerary

Days 1-2: Bozeman to Big Sky Ski Resort

Catch your ride from Bozeman to luxury digs in Big Sky. Carve some turns through Big Sky's endless terrain, or tuck in by the fireplace and read. How about a sleigh ride dinner? It's fun, unique, and cozy.

Days 3-4: Yellowstone National Park

Ride the snow coach into Yellowstone National Park, sharing the closed road with wandering bison. You stay in the heart of the park at the Old Faithful Snow Lodge, a perfect spot for seeing all that's special about Yellowstone in winter. You'll want to explore the Upper Geyser Basin with a naturalist guide, and take the snow coach to West Thumb Geyser Basin to walk the boardwalks. 

Days 5-6: Chico Hot Springs Resort

The snow coach takes you back to Mammoth Hot Springs, where your driver is waiting to drive you up the Paradise Valley to historic Chico Hot Springs Resort. Ahhhh. The water is hot and the food is renowned.  

Day 7: Back to Bozeman for Departures Home

After a hearty Chico breakfast, your driver takes you back to Bozeman to catch flights home.
