Gallatin River Restoration
Protect, Restore, and Enjoy
The Gallatin River Restoration Strategy is a comprehensive plan that centers the ecological health of the river while supporting recreation by repairing degraded sites and adding sustainable access. Our goal is to restore 124 acres across the 39-mile Upper Gallatin corridor, protecting riverbanks, enhancing wildlife habitat, and sustaining recreation for generations.
