Montana has plenty of great hiking locations. No place is better, for not only a good hike but a great view, than Glacier National Park. Hiking is also best done in a group, for plenty of reasons, most importantly safety. In Montana you can add to your group a unique furry friend that's adorably cute.

You probably are thinking I'm talking about using a horse or maybe even a mule as said furry friend. Well, in Montana we're all about uniqueness and it doesn't get more unique than going on a hike in Montana with a llama.

That's where the Swan Mountain Llama Trekking group comes in. They offer all sorts of different hikes with their llamas. There are day hikes, over night hikes, family hikes with llamas and even hunting trips using llamas.

Llamas make great pack animals and since they are indigenous to the Andes Mountains, they are right at home hiking around the Rocky Mountains in Montana. While Swan Mountain Llama Trekking doesn't actually hike inside Glacier National Park, you'll see some great views of the park. Not to mention having the cutest hiking partner ever.
