TipiTrek

Blackfeet Indian Tipi Village

Our Blackfoot tepee camp is located two miles west of Browning, Montana on the Blackfeet Indian Reservation, where prairie and Rocky Mountains meet.   Stay overnight in one of our canvas teepees, which have a fireplace in the center, and are setup in a traditional Pikuni (Blackfoot) manner. Take the opportunity and experience this traditional Plains Indian’s form of housing.

We provide firewood for your campfire in the teepee and for the big communal fire in the arbor. This tipicamp arbor is wooden wind shelter built in the form of a traditional ceremonial lodge. There and in our Crow’s Nest (Guest’s Lunch and Dining Room) you can meet and socialize with other tipicamp guests or with local artists. Furthermore, a shower house, just up the hill from the tipicamp, is part of the guest’s facilities. Decorated artfully in Blackfeet style, all our guest’s facilities take part in providing you with a unique cultural experience.

Enjoy the comfort of the unique tipi construction designed for the dry warmth while retaining airflow and outdoor acoustics of the natural environment. For example, during the summer months, when it can be hot and dry due to the continental climate in the rain shade of the Rockies, the double tipi walls will keep the inside of the tipi at a very pleasant temperature. You also will be able to hear crickets at night, under star-lit skies. Sometimes you can even hear coyotes howl.
