With all due respect to TLC, we think chasing waterfalls is a good thing. And in Montana, it happens to be the perfect socially distant activity. The Treasure State is home to at least 120 known waterfalls -- and while it would be next to impossible to see them all, it certainly wouldn't be too difficult to see the ones on this list. So if you ever find yourself wondering about "waterfalls near me" in Montana, you're not alone! Here are 11 of our favorite falls in the Treasure State:

1. Kootenai Falls, Libby

Park in a dedicated parking lot, take a brief walk over a swinging bridge (it's not too scary, we promise), and you'll find yourself at this magical waterfall. Kootenai Falls is the perfect place to relax.

2. Florence Falls, Glacier National Park

Florence Falls requires a bit of a hike to reach, but it's worth it. The trail is largely forested, although you'll get some photo-worthy glimpses near Mirror Pond. And before you know it, you'll reach this beauty. It's truly a sight straight out of a fairy tale!

3. Running Eagle Falls, Glacier National Park

Running Eagle Falls is one of Glacier's most iconic waterfalls, and for good reason. This beauty's nickname is Trick Falls because in the spring (when there is the most water), there's a 40-foot drop that conceals a smaller cascade below. This trail is also available to anyone and is wheelchair accessible.

4. Morrell Falls, Seeley Lake

Located near Seeley Lake, Morrell Falls National Recreation Trail is a five-mile trek that leads to this stunner. The trail is relatively easy, but there are a lot of exposed tree roots, and it can be steep. As you can see, though, it's worth the effort... especially in the height of fall foliage!

5. Grotto Falls, Bozeman

Gallatin County is brimming with natural beauty, and Grotto Falls is no exception. It sits at the end of a 2.4-mile out-and-back hike that is kid-friendly, wheelchair accessible, and (obviously) very popular.

6. Ousel Falls, Gallatin Gateway

Ousel Falls is another Gallatin County stunner. There are several great hiking trails you can take to reach it, all of which are open all year. The waterfall is especially enchanting when it's frozen. This is peak Big Sky Country beauty!

7. Redrock Falls, Glacier National Park

Redrock Falls is another Glacier National Park stunner, although it's not quite as well-known as some of the others. The 3.5-mile trail to reach it is located near Babb, and the area is well known for moose, but also for grizzlies. Proceed with caution... but know it's well-worth the effort!

8. Crow Creek Falls, Broadwater County

Crow Creek Falls is an underrated treasure. It's located 90 minutes from Townsend and is accessible by a creekside trail.

9. Woodbine Falls, Absaroka-Beartooth Wilderness

Woodbine Falls is probably the most remote waterfall on this list, but it's a bucket list sight if there ever was one. At 280 feet tall, it's one of the tallest waterfalls in Montana, and it's spectacular.

10. Saint Mary Falls and Virginia Falls, Glacier National Park

These two waterfalls get one spot on this list because it's practically impossible to see one without the other... and you won't want to. These falls have their own trail in Glacier National Park, and every step is pleasant.
