Fort Owen State Park - Park It

 

Join us for the exciting premiere of our series "Park It," where we delve into the beauty and history of Montana's incredible state parks. Our inaugural adventure brings us to Fort Owen State Park, listed on the National Register of Historic Places. This park is a vital part of Montana's heritage and located in the Bitterroot Valley on lands important to the Salish People. The park is the site of many Montana firsts: a Catholic church, a sawmill, a grist mill, agricultural development, water rights, and a settlers' school. Come learn about the fascinating restoration efforts on Montana's third-oldest wall and uncover the stories that shaped our state!
