 Bison Quest Adventure Vacations - Montana Wildlife Viewing Tour

Overview

Founded by wildlife biologist Pamela Knowles after she realized how disconnected most people are from the natural world, Bison Quest on the Wild Echo Bison Reserve offers two types of unique vacation experiences allowing to enjoy the most exclusive adventure in Montana. Bison Quest provides a healing touch, a kind word, a place to reconnect, a respect for the earth, an adventure to treasure for a lifetime.

If you would like a very private, very exclusive vacation where you and your group are the only guests on the ranch, then the Bison and Wildlife Adventure Vacation is for you. Experience the pleasure of sleeping in your log cabin, or relaxing in a Lakota Sioux tipi while surrounded by a powerful bison herd in the magnificent Montana wilderness. Learn about the natural history of this awe-inspiring animal and participate in a bison behavioral study with Bison Quest’s wildlife biologists. You can sit back and enjoy the solitude or fill your days with activities like whitewater rafting, horseback riding, hiking, or participating in wildlife studies and eco projects alongside the biologists. This is not a ‘dude ranch or typical resort‘ experience where you will spend your entire vacation and meals with dozens of strangers. Here, you are the private guests of internationally known wildlife biologists on the Wild Echo Bison Reserve shared only with wildlife, blue Montana skies and the Wild Echo bison herd. This Bison Quest vacation is available to only one private group at a time...yours.

For those of you (either singles or groups) who want more than a "typical vacation", who want to actually partake in collecting data for wildlife studies, for those who wish to make the "wild" world a little better while learning about it, for those who want to be a part of something bigger, then the Bison Quest Wildlife Internship Week is for you. Join the small group (4 to 10 individuals) and work alongside Bison Quest’s biologists on habitat restoration and wildlife studies on the Reserve. And, after the three day work “week”, you will be whisked off for a complimentary overnight trip to Yellowstone National Park.
