Elk Summit Campground offers horseback riders and adventurers an unforgettable opportunity to experience Montana's rugged wilderness. Located just 24 miles south of Highway 12, this remote campground provides the perfect starting point for exploring the 1.34 million-acre Selway-Bitterroot Wilderness. Featuring 15 campsites, this stock-friendly campground is equipped with hitching rails, water for your stock, and stunning scenery all around.

Equestrians will find Elk Summit Campground particularly accommodating. Hitching rails are available at many of the campsites, and non-potable water for stock is easily accessible. The campground’s proximity to Hoodoo Lake makes it a wonderful destination for both short and long rides, with the serenity of alpine lakes and remote mountain peaks just a ride away. The stock facilities are designed to provide convenience while allowing you and your horse to enjoy a true wilderness experience.

As a gateway to one of the largest wilderness areas in the United States, Elk Summit Campground is ideal for riders looking to explore some of the wildest country Montana has to offer. Whether it's a leisurely day trip or a multi-day trek, the endless alpine trails provide awe-inspiring views and pristine natural beauty. With no motorized vehicles allowed, horseback riding is one of the best ways to traverse this untouched land.
