TRAVEL INFORMATION Know Before You Go

Darby

Darby, Montana, offers idyllic, Old West allure. This little town sits at the southern tip of the beautiful Bitterroot Valley, nestled between the Sapphire and Bitterroot mountain ranges along the winding Bitterroot River. Downtown Darby offers a step back in time with local antique shops and an old-fashioned candy store. Darby highlights include access to state and federal public lands, like the Anaconda-Pintler Wilderness, Blodgett Canyon, Trapper Peak, Lake Como, and Painted Rocks State Park. You’ll also find the Alta Ranger Station here in Darby—America’s first Forest Service ranger station—and the Richard Cromwell Memorial Rodeo Grounds.
