Makoshika State Park

Score4.5

Makoshika State Park’s badlands of eroded buttes and hoodoos glow dramatically at sunrise/sunset, with long prairie horizons and dramatic shadow lines. It’s ideal for wide landscapes, geology details, and moody skies. Open year-round; weather swings fast—bring layers, plan for dirt-road access, and check Montana state park hours/fees. Parking is usually straightforward near trailheads in the Glendive area; weekdays reduce crowds.
