About this place

This is a very popular trailhead with parking and handicapped facilities at the end of Hyalite Creek Road. Hyalite Creek runs adjacent to the 1.5 mile trail to Grotto Falls. This portion of the trail is wheelchair accessible, allowing persons with disabilities to be able to view a very scenic Grotto Falls with surrounding mountains towering above the trail. Rustic log benches also have been placed in picturesque spots along the trail to rest and enjoy. Trail 427 continues past Grotto Falls, which is the first of at least nine named waterfalls visible from the trail up to Hyalite Lake and eventually onto Hyalite Peak (10,298 ft.). From Bozeman drive south on 19th Street 7 miles to Hyalite Canyon Road. Go south on Hyalite Canyon road 12 miles to Forest Road 62. Take a right driving south for 1.9 miles to the end and the trailhead.
