Bordered by Canada to the north, North Dakota and South Dakota to the east, Wyoming to the south, and Idaho to the west, Montana is known for its stunning natural landscapes, abundant wildlife, and outdoor recreational opportunities.
One of Montana's most iconic features is its breathtaking mountain ranges, including the rugged Rocky Mountains, which dominate much of the state's western region.

In addition to its natural beauty, Montana is known for its rich history and Native American heritage.
