Seeley Swan to Welcome

Winter: Park your vehicle, and ride your snowmobile or cross-country ski directly on to miles of groomed trails right from the motel. Or try ice fishing in one of our many lakes.

Summer: Enjoy day hikes, bicycling or water sports. They are only a stone's throw away. Relax in the fresh mountain air.

Spring & Summer

Boating, Skiing, Fishing:
Whether you bring your own boat or rent one, you must get out and get on one of the Valley's beautiful lakes. Perhaps your choice is Seeley, Salmon, Inez, or Placid Lake; maybe even Lake Alva. Fishing, picnicking and swimming are all great in these areas.

Wildlife Viewing, Birdwatching:
The Seeley Swan Valley is abundant with outdoor activity. Day Hikes and back country pack-ins are popular with wildlife of many species to be observed and photographed. Several bird observatories are located throughout the valley, with the mighty Eagle, wise Owls, and a large variety of water fowl, including loons. Remember, patience and silence is a must to witness and enjoy the shy critters of our wilderness. May brings the Loon & Fish Festival to Seeley Lake.

Golf, Horseshoes, Softball:
Less than 3 short miles south on Hwy 83, you'll find the popular Double Arrow Golf Course. How about an early morning Tee-Off? Horseshoe Pitching is continuous all summer long with the Tournament being held in mid-July. A variety of Softball tournaments are held here in June and July, with the Seeley teams holding their own.

Fall & Winter

Hunting (Bow & Rifle)
Big Game hunting is a very popular sport within our mountain ranges. September is the beginning of Bow season and Rifle season follows that. Permits are issued for elk, deer, moose, bear, mountain lion and goat.

Snowmobiling & Cross Country Skiing
Park your rig in front of your motel room and ride or ski off on approximately 300 miles of groomed trails. Travel through the beauty of the wilderness and enjoy. Seeley Lake Driftriders is our local snowmobile club. January and February bring major snowmobile events plus the much enjoyed and competitive snow sculpturing contest in Seeley Lake. Cross country skiing is abundant and the trails ar shared by snowmobilers and dog sledders.

Dog Sledding
A relaxing way to exercise those dogs and also enjoy the beautiful winter days. Some trails are shared by other winter enthusiasts. January and February host several sled races consisting of 50, 100, 300 and 500 miles in distance.
