Nestled within the breathtaking landscapes of Montana, horse ranches epitomize the rugged charm of the Big Sky Country. Montana's vast expanses of rolling hills, pristine meadows, and mountainous terrains create an idyllic setting for these ranches, where the equestrian spirit thrives.

From seasoned ranchers to avid trail riders and competitive equestrians, Montana's horse culture embodies a unique blend of tradition and modernity. The vast, unspoiled landscapes of Montana provide an idyllic backdrop for horse-related activities, including trail riding through the mountains, cattle ranching on sprawling ranches, and participating in rodeos. According to the National Agricultural Statistics Service, Montana has 27,400 farms and ranches that encompass 59.8 million acres, placing the state second in terms of ranch land, right after Texas.

Montana's economy is characterized by a diverse tapestry of industries that reflect the state's natural resources, outdoor recreation, and agricultural strength. Historically rooted in ranching, farming, and mining, the Treasure State has expanded its economic portfolio to include tourism, technology, and energy. As of 2022, Montana’s GDP stood at $49.7 billion. Agriculture remains a cornerstone, with cattle ranching, wheat farming, and barley production playing pivotal roles. The state's wealth of natural resources, including timber and minerals, also contribute substantially to its economic output.

Turnkey Starter Horse Property!

Belgrade, Gallatin County, Montana


Horse lovers, take note: this is the only horse property in the area priced under $900K – and it's a gem. With light covenants, no HOA, and allowance for three horses on just 2.5 acres, this kind of setup is almost unheard of around here. Most properties nearby limit you to one horse per 5–10 acres, which can price buyers out of the market. This is a rare, affordable chance to live your horse property dream in Belgrade. Location? You’re a quick, easy drive to Yellowstone International Airport, downtown Belgrade, Bozeman, Montana State University, skiing, trailheads – all the great outdoors! Not familiar with the area? Belgrade is growing, but still keeps its small-town vibe as a bedroom community to Bozeman – which regularly lands on “best places to live” lists. Bozeman is home to MSU and a growing tech and outdoor industry scene, with companies like Oracle, laser tech startups, and outdoor rec brands. You've also got world-class skiing, blue-ribbon fly fishing, hiking, biking, rafting – you name it – all within reach. Trails? YES. Gallatin County is bordered by millions of acres of public lands, and thousands of miles of mountain trails. There is a large trail system in Hyalite Canyon south of Bozeman, which includes one trail that goes around and over many waterfalls to a beautiful alpine lake, just as one example. There are trails in Gallatin Canyon that extend into Yellowstone National Park. There are trails north of Bozeman in the Bridger mountains. There are more trails and more wilderness than one person could probably travel in a lifetime, many with beautiful destinations. If you're into trail riding, ask me for more info and pictures!
