Review & FAQ:

Sluice Boxes State Park is a state park and public recreation area in the Little Belt Mountains of Montana with spectacular landscapes of towering cliffs, dramatic ledges, and deep canyons.

Located 12 miles south of Belt on the Kings Hill Scenic Byway, the park consists of eight miles of the Belt Creek Canyon, which features the remains of the area's mining and railroading days.

The Barker mines and the Montana Central Railroad are just a part of the rich history of Sluice Boxes State Park.

Activities in the park include hiking, backcountry camping, picnicking, fishing, bird and wildlife watching, photography, and swimming.
