Big Sky isn’t just one of the best skiing destinations across Montana and the Mountain West. It’s one of the most aptly named places in America. Everything about it is immense.
And if you’re the kind of traveler and skier who likes big mountains that come with big comfort, the warm welcome you’ll receive at Montage Big Sky is as boundless as the sky and peaks above it. The Montage name has long been synonymous with luxury, and Montage Big Sky is no exception. This five-star mountainside resort has all the amenities, conveniences, and adventures you need to make the most of your time both on and off the slopes.

Ski
With over 5,800 acres of skiable terrain at its doorstep, Montage Big Sky makes it easy to focus on the slopes and forget the stress. The location is a true ski-in/ski-out experience, situated just steps from the Lewis & Clark lift, meaning you can get on and off the mountain seamlessly and avoid the busier lift traffic at the base. Don’t have your own gear? No problem. Montage’s on-site equipment outfitter, Compass Sports, can take care of everything you need. Their fleet of skis, boots, and bindings has every kind of on-piste and freeride setup you can dream of, along with private fittings, digital foot scanners, and biomechanics assessments that guarantee the ultimate experience on the snow. Compass also offers private ski lockers, meaning none of the usual schlepping your gear back and forth. And to make things even easier, check out Ski Montage, where if you book ahead, you can enjoy a complimentary night and $200 in credit at Compass Sports.

And for those traveling with kids in tow, the Compass Explorers program is a godsend. The program gets your young Explorers geared up before escorting them to and from Big Sky Resorts’ ski school at the base area. The kids will be off on their adventure, and you’ll be free to explore your way, whether that means booking a private guide or instructor to meet you at the Montage or heading in early for après at Backcast, the mountainside gem of Montage Big Sky’s premium dining slate.

Stay
All of Montage’s accommodations are appointed with luxury amenities and sweeping views of the Spanish Peaks, so you can enjoy the grandeur of the landscape from the comfort of a stunning room, suite, or residence. And if you need a day off the slopes to rest and recover, the Spa Montage is your retreat. The 11,000-square-foot sanctuary features 12 treatment rooms, an indoor pool area, relaxation lounges, plunge pools, steam rooms, and more. The Peak Performance Recovery Massage is the Spa’s most popular offering for skiers; it includes stretching techniques and dynamic air compression to restore your muscles and increase circulation to help get you feeling rested and reset for another day on the snow.

Explore
Like multi-adventure vacations? Montage Big Sky delivers, with plenty of ways to explore the stunning natural scenery outside the resort. Immerse yourself in Montana’s peaceful wilderness on a cross-country skiing or snowshoeing tour, or enjoy the pure fun of the resort’s tubing hills. Or, roam far and wide with winter horseback rides, wildlife tours in Yellowstone National Park, dog sledding treks, and snowmobile tours. The possibilities at Montage are as vast as the sky itself.
