The trails and lands southwest of Foys Lake between Herron Park and Blacktail Mountain are enjoyed by horseback riders, mountain bikers, hikers, cross-country skiers and dog walkers.
At the present time public use of these timber lands is allowed. Our goal is to secure permanent public access to these lands.

The FTBT area is the last piece of forested land open to public use just minutes from Kalispell. As the valley continues to grow, land for recreation close to our communities will become even more precious than it is today. Foys to Blacktail is an effort to preserve our quality of life in the Flathead for now and for future generations.
