Kalispell
Located in the northwest part of the state, 420 mi/675 km northwest of Billings, Kalispell is in the heart of the Flathead Valley, a popular area for visitors. The main visitor attraction in town is the Conrad Mansion National Historic Site, the 1890s Victorian home and gardens built for Kalispell's founder.
Golf is a popular activity in the area—one of the best courses is Eagle Bend, in the nearby community of Bigfork.
Flathead Lake, the largest freshwater lake west of the Mississippi, is 8 mi/12 km south of Kalispell. There are several state parks around the lake and one in the lake: Wild Horse Island State Park is on the lake's largest island. Bald eagles, falcons, bighorn sheep and (as its name suggests) a handful of wild horses live there. To reach the island, take a boat from Big Arm, which has its own state park.
