Spectacular Waterfall Just Miles From Great Falls

Great Falls Is Home To Many Beautiful Views

Great Falls is lucky to be in such close proximity to many beautiful views. We have so many falls that are right here in our backyard sometimes we forget to look at other places.

In the Little Belt Mountains there is a waterfall that is a short hike up to see. From Great Falls the waterfall at Memorial Falls is only about an hour drive during clear weather.
