The Circle Bar Ranch is a historic guest ranch that dates back to the 1800s in central Montana. The 520-acre guest ranch sits at the base of the Helena-Lewis and Clark National Forest. Guests can explore the mountains by horseback, and enjoy fishing, hiking, shooting, archery, and other activities while staying in historic accommodations.

The Circle Bar Guest Ranch offers a wide range of activities from archery and shooting to swimming and spelunking. The ranch’s 520 acres and neighboring Helena-Lewis and Clark National Forest offer plenty of landscape to explore, whether hiking on foot or by horseback. 

Horseback riding is what the ranch is known for: Lope across Montana pastures; ride sturdy horses up to the mountains, or stay in-ranch to learn how to sort cattle.

Lodging at the Circle Bar ranges from lodge rooms to free-standing historic log cabins, or the large, well-equipped Ranch House. The Lodge features cozy guest rooms, the dining and living room.
