Billings – Things to do with your Team

Much like the rest of Montana, natural beauty runs throughout Billings. Two-thirds of the city is located in the Yellowstone Valley, the Yellowstone River runs through the southeast portion of Billings, and, perhaps most notably, it is home to a series of massive sandstone formations known as the Rimrocks.

Although Billings is known for its impressive landscapes and natural landmarks, there’s just as much unique fun to be found indoors as there is out. Being that Billings is the largest city in Montana there’s no shortage of fun attractions to enjoy with your team. So, whether your team likes to explore the great outdoors or is just looking for a fun time while they aren’t competing, Billings has got you covered.

The Rimrocks

Montana is a state well-known for its natural beauty and one of the best places to experience it is the Rimrocks, one of Billings’ most popular outdoor attractions.

At the Rimrocks you and your team will experience sprawling views of the city that are second-to-none as you traverse this series of geological sandstone formations that were formed over the course of 80 million years.

Atop the Rimrocks there are multiple parks that your group can visit as well, including Zimmerman Park, Swords Park, and the Four Dances Natural Area. Zimmerman and Swords Park are great for hiking, biking, bouldering, and even have some spots to rock climb and rappel from. Located in a more secluded area of the Rimrocks, Four Dances Natural Area offers fantastic views of the Yellowstone River from cliffs high above.

Even if your group isn’t feeling up to exploring the miles of trails that run throughout the Rimrocks on foot, you can still appreciate the sights from your car as your drive by. Rimrock Rd, Billings, MT 59303

ZooMontana

At ZooMontana, Montana’s only zoo and botanical park located conveniently in Billings, you and your team can get acquainted with wildlife native to the state, as well as those native to the Rockies and other cold temperature regions at or above the 45th parallel.

Canyon Creek runs through the center of the zoo’s 70-acre grounds, making for a natural and tranquil setting perfect for visiting animals like the red panda, Canada lynx, grizzly bear, and nearly 100 more. Animals from warmer climates like the laughing kookaburra, green iguana, and three banded armadillo can be found in the zoo’s Discovery Center.

The botanical gardens of the zoo include the one-acre Jane Reger Sensory Garden, consisting of both native and exotic plants that intend to stimulate the senses; a Montana Garden, which highlights the region’s native foliage; Dotty’s Garden, which is home to plants with low water requirements; as well as other natural spaces.

ZooMontana also hosts fun events like Family Fun Night and Breakfast with the Animals, so be sure to check out their Zoocalendar for any upcoming events as you plan your team’s visit. 2100 S Shiloh Rd, Billings, MT 59106

Reef Indoor Water Park

For a day of wild fun in the water, Reef Indoor Water Park is second to none; mostly because it’s the largest indoor water park in the state of Montana. Your team is quite fortunate that it’s in Billings.

In this football field-sized water park your team can climb three stories up and rocket down the Barracuda Blaster or the Tropical Twister, play a game of water basketball, or ride three-foot waves in their 55,000 gallon wave pool. All the while you can relax in the 20-person hot tub that’s always at a soothing 102 degrees; guaranteed to melt away the troubles of a busy day.

If you’re visiting Reef Indoor Water Park with a group of young children they’re sure to have a great time exploring the interactive playhouse designed just for them. The playhouse features slides, mini-tubes, squirt guns, tunnels, and even a 250 gallon dumping bucket!
