This charming alpine town is nestled in the foothills of the magnificent Beartooth Mountains and is surrounded by Custer National Forest. The 69-mile Beartooth Scenic Drive has dramatic switchbacks overlooking snow-capped peaks, glaciers, alpine lakes and plateaus. The Beartooth Pass has been described as the most scenic drive in America by CBS news correspondent Charles Kuralt. Area attractions include:
Historic downtown Red Lodge featuring businesses built from the 1880's to 1915.
