There's no arguing that the Gallatin Valley has a mean breakfast game. Brunching on a Sunday is something of a sport in this area, similar to the likes of New York City (only it’s a lot easier to get a spot at a table). Belgrade is no exception. When it comes to breakfast joints and cafes, locals can look forward to an array of options that are sure to impress. Whether you’re looking for a quick bite to grab on your way or a good sit-down meal, we’ve got Belgrade’s best cafe and breakfast spots nailed down for you.

When it comes to winter in Belgrade, there’s no rule written that you have to stay cooped up in your house for a fourth of the year if you don’t want to (but if you do, more on how to do that well here).  It’s more than possible to stay active and get out and about during the winter months— in fact, it’s the norm here! You don’t have to be shredding pow to take part in some outdoor adventure this winter. Plenty of locals and visitors alike are still able to hit the snow, get some fresh air, and exercise without ever strapping on a snowboard or a pair of skis. The answer? Snowshoeing of course!

We've talked before about the many perks of settling in Belgrade. There is a reason this little town has proven to be incredibly popular with locals and those coming from out-of-town. Belgrade residents enjoy all the perks that await them in the sister city of Bozeman just a quick jaunt down the interstate while still enjoying that authentic, small-town Montana feel homeowners crave. Best of all? Some of the best skiing in the country exists just up the road, with more than one mountain an hour outside your backyard. Here are four ski destinations to visit within a short day-trip from Belgrade.

We all know there are enough sights to see in Montana that someone could live here for years and still have a massive bucket list. While we’ve gone over some of the best ways to view the landscape, today we are talking about something a little wilder. We’re dishing on the best wildlife viewing opportunities that await you and your family just outside of Belgrade. Let’s take a look!

The holiday season anywhere is a special time, but something about holidays in Bozeman and Belgrade is truly magical. All of the small wonders that knit our community together in their own unique way are magnified by the spirit of the holiday season. As snowfall begins to blanket the city and the lights go up on Main Street, the buzz of the holidays begins to settle in among the locals.

Of course, with such an interesting year nearly under our belts, its only natural to expect that celebrations may look a bit different this year. Our valley has had to stay agile and adjust as a community throughout all of 2020, and the holiday season is proving no different. But if ever there was a time to keep the woes of the world from getting you down, it’s now. That’s why we’ve put together out best list of holiday happenings in the Gallatin Valley you can still look forward to this season.

It's no secret that Montana is home to some of the most beautiful views the country has to offer, especially here in the valley where we live. While other parts of the state offer sweeping views of endless prairie, Belgrade and it's surrounding areas bring 360° mountain views, deep-cut canyons, rolling countryside, abundant wildlife, and raging rivers for the interested sightseer. One of the best ways to soak them all in is merely taking a good drive, which anyone who lives in Montana knows, is required if you want to get just about anywhere other than down the road. That's why today we're looking at the most scenic drives near the Belgrade area.

Anyone who has visited Montana for even the shortest amount of time can tell you there's something especially magical about this state. "Like stepping back in time" is a phrase that's often thrown around. And it's true. There is a nature to Big Sky Country that is reminiscent of another era—more specifically—a simpler era.

It's a brisk morning. The sun is taking its time coming up, there's a slight bite in the air that seems to have settled in overnight, and it leaves have begun to turn the soft shade of yellow. The changes are subtle but undeniable. The summer season is moving out, and with the ushering in a fall, locals begin to look forward to the hunting season's opening day.

 While there are endless things to do within the Belgrade and Bozeman area, from mom and pop coffee shops, to boutiques, to getting outdoors, there’s something to be said for taking the occasional trip out of town. And while Montana is wildly proud of its remote nature, that most certainly doesn’t mean there aren’t loads of great opportunities to get out and about right outside your door. You just have to know where to look. That’s why today we’re taking a look at five fabulous day trips you can make from Prescott Ranch right here in Belgrade. Let’s hit it.

Prescott Ranch was designed with families in mind, and it’s about to get even more family-friendly in the coming years.
