Review:

The small historic town of Belt is located in the Great Falls metropolitan area of Cascade County. Belt started off as Montana’s first coal mining town back in the late 1800’s and there is still plenty of early coal-mining equipment and building dotted around the area. You can learn more about the early days in Belt on a visit to the Belt Museum, which now occupies the former town jail built in 1895. Most of the remaining buildings in downtown Belt are listed on the National Register of Historic Places. These days cattle ranching has taken over from mining and you can visit nearby ranches to get a feel of the real Wild West.
