If you're planning a trip to Yellowstone National Park, one of the most common questions is: how do I get from Bozeman to West Yellowstone? Whether you're flying into Bozeman Yellowstone International Airport or starting your adventure from town, the journey to the park is part of the fun.
The Route: What You'll See Along the Way
The drive from Bozeman to West Yellowstone is nothing short of spectacular. You'll travel along US-191, a scenic highway that follows the Gallatin River through a stunning canyon surrounded by mountains, forests, and wildlife.
As we make our way south, we'll pass through Gallatin Gateway and the adventure hub of Big Sky, with its towering peaks and mountain-town charm. This area is rich in wildlife, so don’t be surprised if you spot elk, bighorn sheep, bald eagles — even a moose if you're lucky!
The entire trip takes about 1 hour and 45 minutes, and it's filled with photo-worthy views around every bend.
What’s Waiting in West Yellowstone
When you arrive in West Yellowstone, you’re not just entering a gateway to the national park — you’re stepping into a vibrant, historic mountain town with a personality all its own.
West Yellowstone is full of small-town charm, friendly locals, and activities the whole family can enjoy. Take time to explore:
The Grizzly & Wolf Discovery Center – A must-see, where you can safely view bears, wolves, and otters up close.
Yellowstone Giant Screen Theatre – Catch a film on a six-story screen, including nature documentaries and family-friendly features.
Locally owned shops – Browse for Western art, handmade goods, Native American crafts, and Yellowstone souvenirs.
Great dining options – Whether you're craving a hearty bison burger, fresh trout, or huckleberry ice cream, West Yellowstone has something for every taste.
Easy access to trails and nature – Go for a walk or rent bikes to explore the surrounding forests, lakes, and rivers just outside of town.
The town is walkable, welcoming, and packed with history — including remnants of the old Union Pacific Railroad days that helped shape its beginnings.
With cozy lodges, friendly vibes, and plenty to explore even outside the park, West Yellowstone is more than just a stop — it’s a destination in its own right.
