Summary
Permits are required to camp, fish, or hike on tribal lands—available through the Fort Belknap Fish & Wildlife Department. There are no formal campgrounds with amenities, so campers must come self-sufficient: no toilets, water, fire rings, or picnic tables. RV access is possible on certain roads, but there are no hookups. The area features open prairie and badlands with scenic views of the Little Rocky Mountains. Ideal for solitude and cultural exploration, the best time to visit is late spring through early fall.

Camping Essential Practices
Take all trash, food scraps, and gear back with you to keep campsites clean and protect wildlife.
Respect Wildlife
Observe animals from a distance, store food securely, and never feed wildlife to maintain natural behavior and safety.
Know Before You Go
Check weather, fire restrictions, trail conditions, and permit requirements to ensure a safe and well-planned trip.
Minimize Campfire Impact
Use established fire rings, keep fires small, fully extinguish them, or opt for a camp stove when fires are restricted.
Leave What You Find
Preserve natural and cultural features by avoiding removal of plants, rocks, artifacts, or other elements of the environment.
