Meet at the Fish Tech Center parking lot off Bridger Canyon Drive.
The main trail is steep and not stroller-friendly, but the Fish Tech Center nearby has a lovely pond, shady spots, picnic tables, and a relaxed atmosphere if you're not up for a hike.

Fresh Air Families is a weekly summer program designed to help caregivers connect with nature, their families, and each other while exploring Bozeman’s beautiful trails and parks.
At Roots, we believe getting outside isn’t just good for kids — it’s essential for caregivers, too. Nature offers a reset: a change of scenery, a breath of fresh air, and a chance to feel grounded. You don’t have to be an experienced hiker to enjoy the sun on your face, the wind in your hair, and the dirt beneath your feet.
This is a no-judgment, no-expectations group that welcomes all families — including expecting parents. Whether you’re up for a full hike or just a short stroll, you’re invited to join at your own pace. Stop for snacks, turn around when needed, and come as often or as little as you’d like. The whole family is always welcome — including dads, partners, grandparents, and caregivers of all kinds.
We meet on select Fridays at 9:15 AM, and begin our hike or stroll at 9:30 AM. Please come prepared with water, snacks, sunscreen, hats, and anything else your family may need.
🐶 A quick note about pets: For the safety and comfort of all participants — especially our littlest hikers — we kindly ask that dogs stay at home. Thank you for understanding!
