Downtown Missoula -- which includes the charming shopping area Heart of Missoula -- is picture-perfect. With its off-street bicycle lanes, wide walkways, quaint shops, restaurants and cafes, and inspiring mountain views, you'll wonder why you didn't move here sooner. Situated along the Clark Fork River, the scenic beauty of Downtown Missoula doesn't stop at the mountains -- head to the river for some gorgeous parks that include Clark Fork Nature Area, Toole Park, and Bess Reed Park.
As home to the University of Montana, Downtown Missoula residents love cheering on the Montana Grizzlies. The Grizzlies are members of NCAA Division I as part of the Big Sky Conference. In addition to spending football season at Washington-Grizzly Stadium, residents can also enjoy the cultural side of the university at the Montana Museum of Art and Culture or at the Philip L. Wright Zoological Museum, both located on campus.
Montana is known for its breweries, and Downtown Missoula features several. Some of these include KettleHouse Brewing Company, Draught Works, and Imagine Nation Brewing. Bayern Brewing Company, established in 1987, is the state's oldest brewery. When residents aren't strolling downtown, attending a Grizzlies game, or enjoying the nightlife, they're taking advantage of the landscape -- hiking, kayaking, river rafting, tubing, and camping are all possible just a short distance from Downtown Missoula.
