Print Friendly MapThe A.J. Hoyt Memorial Trail can be found in Frenchtown, a small community about 16 miles northwest of downtown Missoula. The trail parallels the Frenchtown Frontage Road for just over 5 miles and its flat, asphalt surface makes for an easy walk or ride for users of all ages. The trail passes by a mix of homes and ranches, and is close to the Frenchtown Pond State Park, a favorite spot for water-based activities like swimming, kayaking, paddleboarding and snorkeling.
Park at the Frenchtown Pond State Park (18401 Frenchtown Frontage Road); you can also find restrooms there.
This trail is a segment of the Great American Rail-Trail (GART).
Location: Frenchtown, MT
Trail Condition: Very nice asphalt path with a newly completed section of excellent condition.
Signage: None.
Comments: A new portion of the trail has recently been added to the trail. From Mill Creek Rd (east end of trail) going southeast to junction with Hwy 93 near Wye is 6 miles of new trail. It parallels the frontage road, like the original section of trail. This new section of trail does encounter a couple hills. Thus not level like the original section. Overall nice trail. Lots of clover growing along the trail and smelled good the day I rode. A new other trail users were encountered.
