Open Lands. Connected Trails.

WELCOME

For Today, Tomorrow, And Forever.

GALLATIN VALLEY LAND TRUST connects people to the landscapes that surround us through the conservation of open spaces and creation of trail systems. Through our work we provide spaces for our community to get outside, protect habitat for our area’s most iconic wildlife species, keep working farms working, and offer world-class outdoor recreation from our Main Street to the Mountains, and so much more. In short, we preserve the very things that make the Gallatin Valley such a great place to live.

Songs of Shoulder Season

Before you hit the trail during should season, there are a few things you should know to keep both yourself and the trails in good shape.

The Perfect Hiking Companion

Stock your daypack with the Flora of the Yellowstone field guide, which includes more than 400 species of wildflowers, shrubs, trees, and other flora of the Greater Yellowstone Region. Bozeman author Whitney Tilt generously donates all proceeds of the guide to GVLT’s work on trails and conservation.

Looking Back: GVLT’s First Conservation Easement

Our land conservation work began shortly after our founding in 1990 when 86-year-old Gertrude Baker came to GVLT to help forever protect her 181-acre property on Bozeman Pass and the wildlife depending on it.

Hit The Trails

Run to the top of Triple Tree or relax in a shady glade along the Sourdough Trail. Walk your dog. Get outside. Take a deep breath and enjoy.
