Whitefish is one of the most scenic,
breathtaking areas in America.
Whitefish is surrounded on three sides by picturesque
mountain peaks that include the Big Mountain Ski and Summer
Resort just outside of town. This alpine village offers
summer activities including the most scenic gondola ride in
the Northwest, hiking, horseback riding, kids day camp,
chuckwagon dinners, village and summit dining, and music
festivals in the outdoor amphitheater.
Whitefish still retains the warm, friendly charm of its
bygone railroading days. The refurbished Great Northern
Railroad Depot, along with the western-style covered
walkways, are the focal point of the downtown area. Nestled
in the majestic Rocky Mountains on the shore of Whitefish
Lake, this small, friendly Montana town offers the best in
four-season recreation. |
