About Beavertail Hill State Park

This 65-acre park sits along the Clark Fork River, with about half a mile of frontage that draws anglers and floaters. Visitors can camp in tents or RVs, rent one of two canvas tipis, picnic, or walk a self-guided loop through a dense stand of cottonwoods. Boats must be carried in by hand. The park also has an amphitheater that hosts interpretive programs in summer.
