Communities: Seeley Lake
With the Mission and Swan mountain ranges flanking the Seeley-Swan valley, Seeley Lake is located on Highway 83, just 51 miles northeast of Missoula and 80 miles south of Kalispell. This picturesque town is found on the 91-mile stretch of road commonly known as the ‘Seeley Swan Highway’ or the ‘Chain of Lakes.'
A full service town with about 2400 year- round residents, the community doubles in size during the summer months. It is home to a locally-owned grocery store, pharmacy, hardware store and sporting goods stores, auto repair shops with gas and recreation/sport rentals. Seeley Lake and the surrounding area has multiple churches, lodges, motels, guest ranches, conference facilities and restaurants which contribute to the town’s growing popularity.
Highlighting the community’s welcoming spirit, it is host to a variety of seasonal recreational events. The Memorial Day weekend Loon and Fish Festival, an annual celebration of area wildlife and the 4th of July events are true celebrations of the character of Seeley Lake. During the warmer seasons, folks enjoy birding, wildlife viewing, fishing, camping, boating, hiking, backpacking, horseback riding and golfing and trap shooting. Mountain biking, along hundreds of miles of trails and roads and canoeing the Clearwater River Canoe Trail are quite popular, too.
“Winterfest”, held during the last two weekends in January, is Montana's premier winter recreation event. The Seeley-Monture 100 sled dog race starts and finishes in downtown Seeley Lake and in February, the 350-mile Race to the Sky sled dog race has a checkpoint in Seeley Lake, making them both spectator friendly events. Seeley Lake is in the heart of a vast network of trails, winding in and around the local mountain ranges, and a world-class Nordic ski trail system. Enjoying the serenity and beauty of the winter wonderland on a horse-drawn sleigh ride or on a guided sled dog ride are experiences the traveler to Seeley Lake will never forget. We invite you to enjoy our small town atmosphere nestled in this mountain paradise.
