Sun Prairie, Montana, is in Cascade County and lies along I-15 near Sun River. This quiet town is at the foot of the Rockies and part of the Great Plains.
It is considered a census-designated place but part of the Great Falls metropolitan area.
The area is somewhat geographically isolated and does not see as much tourism as some of the other Montana cities. Sun Prairie is close to Buffalo Jump State Park, the world’s largest buffalo kill site.
The area has immense Native American History. Archeologists have uncovered spearheads dating back 5,000 years. Thousands of years later, settlers from out East began to occupy the place, building railways and mining towns.
Because Sun Prairie is such a small town, most activities are in Great Falls, about a 15-minute drive from Sun Prairie.
