Fly-Fishing & Fishing

The Big Horn Basin offers a variety of fishing opportunities in rivers, creeks and lakes. Within one hour driving distance we have access to 74 miles along the Big Horn Canyon or Yellowtail Dam which offers fishing opportunities for trout, bass, walleye, pike, etc.
However nothing is more relaxing than walking down to our stocked ponds or Shell Creek to catch a couple big ones.
With the many unspoiled streams in this little known and populated region the possibilities are endless. One thing is sure….there will not be another 100 people fishing the same water.
You can either go out on your own or with some of our local guides, who will be happy to show you their hotspots. We can also organize Fly-Fishing initiation if you are a novice. At The Hideout Lodge & Guest Ranch we have 2 casting ponds with no trees around them.

When it comes to mountain biking there are beginner, intermediate and advanced levels. Needless to say this area is a challenging mountain bike region and we have access to a team of local expert mountain bikers who know these trails and mountains by heart.

When it comes to hiking we can offer a variety of trails. There are endless hiking opportunities at elevations of 4200 feet in the valley all the way to 13,000 feet in the Cloud Peak Wilderness area.
