Kootenai Falls is the largest undammed waterfall in Montana and one of the largest waterfalls in the United States by flow rate.
“The River Wild” with Kevin Bacon and Meryl Streep was filmed on the Kootenai River and Koonenai Falls. This movie also featured the Middle Fork of the Flathead River near Glacier National Park.
Kootenai Falls was also featured in the famous River scene in “The Revenant” starring Leonardo DiCaprio.
This short hike is less than 2 miles round trip and is accessible right off of highway 2 between Libby and Troy, Montana. After going over the bridge above the train tracks, fork to the right to approach the stunning falls from the south side of the river. Continue left and across the swinging bridge for views from the north side of the Kootenai River.
As history tells, the Kootenai Tribe considered this a place sacred. They saw the falls as the center of the world and a place where tribal members could commune with the spiritual forces that gave direction to the tribe.
