Spanning nearly 1,000 miles, the MTBDR crosses more than a dozen mountain ranges, links historic towns, and dives deep into some of the most remote and visually striking terrain in the American West. With Montana completing the western BDR map, this route is expected to become one of the most sought-after adventure motorcycle rides in North America.

The Montana BDR tour is a guided adventure motorcycle ride following the Montana Backcountry Discovery Route. This hotel-based, small-group tour is designed for riders who want to experience Montana’s remote backcountry with smart pacing, navigation support, and optional challenges — without riding alone.
