Waterfall Hikes Near Anaconda, MT
within 50 miles
The Pintler range starts almost at Anaconda's back door, so this old smelter town reaches its waterfalls faster than most Montana cities manage. Rock Creek Falls takes two miles of trail and 300 feet of gain. Pintler Falls doubles that at four miles and 500 feet, and both welcome dogs. Skalkaho Falls pours beside the pass road toward the Bitterroot, visible from the car with room to wander further. Star Falls logs six and a half miles and little else on record, so plan it loosely.
