Golf is a popular activity in the area—one of the best courses is Eagle Bend, in the nearby community of Bigfork.

Flathead Lake, the largest freshwater lake west of the Mississippi, is 8 mi/12 km south of Kalispell. There are several state parks around the lake and one in the lake: Wild Horse Island State Park is on the lake's largest island. Bald eagles, falcons, bighorn sheep and (as its name suggests) a handful of wild horses live there. To reach the island, take a boat from Big Arm, which has its own state park.
