For those looking for the quintessential Montana river voyage, our variety of guided “glamping” trips in the Missouri River Breaks offer the ultimate experience. A guided trip takes the guesswork out of how to enjoy the river at its finest in the limited time you may have in your schedule. Missouri River Outfitters experienced guides know the best places to camp, the best places to hike, and handle all of the camp logistics for you. Even better, they are skilled at telling the history of the river and they know the flora, fauna, and the stunning geology in which you’ll be constantly immersed. Our gourmet menu on the trip features local beef, Northwest salmon, vegetarian and vegan alternatives, fresh produce, and home-baked desserts. Best of all, our guides do all of the cooking (and clean-up!!), giving you more time to enjoy the scenery and the solitude. It is hard to beat chilled chardonnay or a cold, local Montana craft-brewed beer while lounging at river’s edge while relishing one of the unparalleled breath-taking sunsets, or a cup of fresh-brewed, French-pressed coffee while the sun rises over the prairie mist.
Eagle Creek is one of the most iconic campgrounds on the river and is known for its beautiful riverside views and fabulous slot canyon and petroglyph hikes. Eagle creek has a rich history.
Described in the Lewis and Clark Journals as “scenes of visionary enchantment”. Through the “white cliffs” you will see Teppee rings, Corp of Discovery Campgrounds, petroglyphs, and towering layers of Eagle Sandstone and Shonkinite.
Some of the most secluded wilderness in the breaks. This section becomes larger and “wilder” as the river opens up from white cliffs along the river’s edge to steep badlands surrounding the river.
Towering white sandstone cliffs and secluded cottonwood-shaded campsites mark this stretch of the Missouri. Both sunrise and sunset provide unrivaled natural light shows on the cliff faces.
The Marias River is a very secluded river that is unmapped and uncharted. It goes through some of the most magnificent scenery. This river doesn’t have designated campgrounds and gives you the true wilderness feel.
You will see the river drastically change right in front of your eyes. Each day will be packed with activities including but not limited to hiking, paddling, storytelling, relaxing, and swimming.
