Gallatin River Ranch | a 7 Image Story The Gallatin River Ranch is a 5,900 acre ranch converted into a residential ranch community with a ranch style “old west” feel. Located in the Horseshoe Hills of southern Montana, northwest of Bozeman, MT, it has stunning views of eight mountain ranges, rivers, and rolling farmlands. It’s a hilly high, dry desert area at around 4800 foot elevation. As a midwestern flatlander, walking round the ranch can be challenging. The thinner air quickly becomes obvious and a water bottle is your best friend on a hike. The ranch’s southern boundary lies along the the confluence where the East and West Gallatin Rivers meet. Mule deer and Pronghorn cross the river while eagles, hawks, and water fowl fly overhead.
