The refuge provides visitors with opportunities for wildlife observation, photography, hunting, fishing, environmental education and interpretation. There are two miles of nature trails in the refuge’s Wildlife Viewing Area. The trails meander through meadows and river bottom woodlands along the Bitterroot River. The Wildlife Viewing Area includes a half-mile wheelchair accessible path, which leads to the Bitterroot River. A county road (Wildfowl Lane) stretches through the refuge providing scenic views of the surrounding landscape and abundant opportunities to view wildlife on the refuge.

The mission of Lee Metcalf National Wildlife Refuge is to manage habitat for a diversity of wildlife species with emphasis on migratory birds and endangered and threatened species, and to provide compatible human benefits associated with Refuge wildlife and wildlands.

Teller Wildlife Refuge is a 1200-acre private wildlife refuge managed by the non-profit organization Teller Wildlife Refuge, Inc. We manage the Refuge for wildlife, plants, and people in the heart of western Montana's scenic Bitterroot Valley. Spread out along 3 miles of the Bitterroot River, once traversed by Lewis and Clark, and the ancestral home of the Salish Indians, the Refuge includes croplands, uplands and timbered river-bottom.

Leave your stress behind! You will find this spectacular 1.6 million acre forest in southwest Montana and Idaho to be a priceless national heritage. Half of the forest is dedicated to the largest expanse of continuous pristine wilderness in the lower 48 states -- the Selway Bitterroot, Frank Church River of No Return, and the Anaconda Pintler.

Much of its beauty can be attributed to the heavily glaciated, rugged peaks of the Bitterroot Range. Drainages carved by glaciers form steep canyons that open into the valley floor.

Come enjoy the magnificent mountains, the serenity of wilderness, the miracle of spring flowers, majestic big game, and the sounds of birds here in our land of multiple uses.
