Discover Livingston, Experience Paradise
Livingston, Montana is located about 1 hour north of Yellowstone Park and was the original entrance to the Park. Surrounded by three awesome mountain ranges, the historical town of Livingston is home to some of the best trout fishing in the world. Fisherman return year after year to fly fish on the Yellowstone River and relax in paradise.

Long before the white man arrived, the Shoshone, Bannock, Blackfoot and Crow Indians called this area "The Valley of the Flowers". This was a sacred, natural territory used for hunting. The first white people to enter the local area were the famous Lewis and Clark along with their party including Sacajawea. Jim Bridger (the famous scout and mountain man) wintered with the Crow Indians near Emigrant in 1844-45. In 1864 gold was discovered bringing an influx of miners and settlers making Livingston a town in 1882 with the coming of the Northern Pacific railroad.
Visit our historic downtown area. Picture it as it was when Calamity Jane was in residence. Livingston, along with Deadwood, S.D., were both the home of Calamity Jane, whose given name was Martha Canary. Known as a straight-shootin’, whip-crackin’ frontier woman, she at one time lived in a local hotel and ... in the local jail. We have historic buildings, museums, boutiques, art galleries featuring some of the countries most renowned Western Artists, and numerous cafes and eateries to suit everyone's taste.
For those of you who love to travel by RV, we have many RV and Campgrounds for you to choose from. My personal recommendation is Osen's RV Park and Campground. It's quiet, dog friendly, with all the amenities and hook-ups you need, including Cable TV and WIFI.
I could tell you lots more, but I don't want to spoil your surprise when you discover Livingston and experience paradise.
