Yellowstone in winter is a special
experience. Most winter visitors currently prefer to travel by
snowmobile. The snowmobile offers more mobility to the most popular
attractions. To make your winter trip more enjoyable, please plan
ahead. During inclement weather, there will be overcrowding at
the warming huts, restrooms and restaurants due to the limited
winter facilities. You can ease the pressure by using the many
services that are offered in the gateway communities. Please use
our Tours Directory to plan your winter vacation and be aware
of road closures.
GUIDED SNOWMOBILE TOURS
Roundtrip tours are available. A guide will help you explore
features along the way. See our Snowmobile Rental Operators.

West
Yellowstone Snowmobile Rental Operators
The West Yellowstone, Montana
area is considered to be
the finest snowmobiling in the world. Perhaps this is due
to the tremendous amount of backcountry powder or it's proximity
to Yellowstone National Park. Each March, the friendly town
of West Yellowstone celebrates, and is host to, the World Snowmobile
Expo. During the expo, the snowmobile manufacturers showcase
and unveil the newest line of snowmobiles for the following
season. Among the many industry exhibits, you can participate
in snowmobiling events such as snowcross and drag races. Each
day during expo week, a different event is featured.
West Yellowstone is unique in that you can legally drive snowmobiles
on most streets and alleys right from your hotel. You can either
bring your own sled or rent a new from one of the local
rental shops. Lodging and restaurants are plentiful, but
you are encouraged to make reservations in advance.The prime
snowmobile season begins around the third week of December,
when the Park opens, until the end of March.
The following snowmobile operators
provide rentals to tour Yellowstone National Park. We
highly recommend contacting one of our banner advertisers above.
They offer discounts and will provide you with a trail map and
clothing. When you get to West Yellowstone be sure to ask about
the hundreds of miles of groomed trails outside of Yellowstone
National Park and see why it is the snowmobiling capital of
the world.
