Medicine Lake National Wildlife Refuge

Thousands of migrating waterfowl make their summer home in Medicine Lake's refuge. Great blue herons, white pelicans, sandhill cranes, grebes and 12 different species of ducks share the prairie lake ecosystem.

Self-guided hiking and a 14-mile driving tour around the wildlife refuge are some popular options. One tour stop is the site of teepee rings of stone, perhaps 4000 years old, which mark aras where Indian lodges were built.

The refuge is located off Highway 16, 1.5 miles south of Medicine Lake and 25 miles north of Culbertson in NE Montana.
