Tips

November 27, 2022

Ousel Falls is a popular waterfall you can enjoy after an easy hike in the south of Big Sky.
The trail and the waterfall offer a quiet moment into the forest, and if you are lucky, you can see ouzel birds diving into the river.

Easy well-maintained hike to the falls from the parking lot. If you want a little more interesting of a hike, make sure you don't miss the "connector", which adds some more climbing and descending, but it takes you closer to the Gallatin River, and there is another beautiful small stream that you cross along the way. Built up. nicely with boardwalks that would be fun on a mountain bike.
