Nestled within the breathtaking landscapes of Montana, horse ranches epitomize the rugged charm of the Big Sky Country. Montana's vast expanses of rolling hills, pristine meadows, and mountainous terrains create an idyllic setting for these ranches, where the equestrian spirit thrives.

From seasoned ranchers to avid trail riders and competitive equestrians, Montana's horse culture embodies a unique blend of tradition and modernity. The vast, unspoiled landscapes of Montana provide an idyllic backdrop for horse-related activities, including trail riding through the mountains, cattle ranching on sprawling ranches, and participating in rodeos. According to the National Agricultural Statistics Service, Montana has 27,400 farms and ranches that encompass 59.8 million acres, placing the state second in terms of ranch land, right after Texas.

Montana's economy is characterized by a diverse tapestry of industries that reflect the state's natural resources, outdoor recreation, and agricultural strength. Historically rooted in ranching, farming, and mining, the Treasure State has expanded its economic portfolio to include tourism, technology, and energy. As of 2022, Montana’s GDP stood at $49.7 billion. Agriculture remains a cornerstone, with cattle ranching, wheat farming, and barley production playing pivotal roles. The state's wealth of natural resources, including timber and minerals, also contribute substantially to its economic output.

RANCHETTE - BITTERROOT VALLEY

Hamilton, Ravalli County, Montana


Country seclusion close to Hamilton. Bring a horse or two and enjoy the Bitterroot valley. This older, eclectic owner loves the place, but is moving to KY to be with his kids and grandkids. Picture this place without all his stuff and you'll create your own great setting. This nice country ranch is not beat up, just needs a little love. 4 heat sources make this place very energy efficient, plus 4 woodstoves (living area, barn, tack room, guest quarters) placed strategically around the place. Back on the market, the recent VA Buyer was turned down for his VA loan with credit issues. It's been through the VA home inspection phase. Seller had a VA loan on it until he did a reverse mortgage a little while back. Still is VA loan eligible. Nice place....country setting close to town. Yee-Haw!!!
