What to Expect on a Wild Horse Island Tour

Wild Horse Island is the largest island on Flathead Lake—and one of the largest inland islands in the U.S. This 2,160-acre state park is only accessible by boat and is open for day-use only.

Once we arrive, your group is welcome to leave the boat and begin your self-guided hiking adventure. You’ll have the chance to spot and photograph:

Wild Horses
Rocky Mountain Bighorn Sheep
Mule Deer
Bald Eagles & Osprey
Coyotes and more

If hiking isn’t your thing, no problem! You’re welcome to stay on the boat and enjoy a relaxing cruise around the island. We’re happy to tailor the trip to your interests.

What Others Have to Say!

We had an amazing 1/2 day charter with our guide Pete Jellar today! We got 3 good size lake trout and though we had some choppy waves to start, the day ended calm with a wonderful dinner in hand. Pete was fun, knowledgeable and made us feel right at home. He also gave us a great local recommendation for lunch afterwards. Definitely a highlight of our 10 year anniversary trip and are already talking about coming back and booking with Pete again….

Unbelievable experience!! My son will forever treasure learning how to reel in big lake trout with the help of Joe Sangimino and his wife!! They are both expert fisherman/woman with great persistence and patient that made the experience worthwhile and so much fun!! Forever grateful and will definitely plan a trip back!!…
