To begin with, Wild Horse Island State Park is one of the larger islands on Flathead Lake. It is a primitive 2,200 acre State Park that is only accessible by boat. A Kayak is perfect calming way to get there. The hike is optional and can be challenging depending on the route. The bay where you land is very beautiful and great place to swim and relax in the cool glacier green water.
Wild life can be spotted from the water as well as the shore. We typically see osprey, big horn sheep, deer, bald eagles, and the 6 wild horses that call this remote state park home.
