Inspired by the movie, Far and Away, this premier gated community is located off Molt Road at the end of Echo Canyon, just 4 miles past Yellowstone Country Club, Billings' premier golf, tennis, swim, and pickleball private club. The land offers diverse topography with timber-covered ridges, canyons, springs, and rimrocks. The building sites for nearly all of the tracts have views of a secluded valley to the south, with the added benefit of additional privacy afforded by State Land bordering the community's western boundary. The community has an exclusive private limited easement for access to the State Land. Bike, hiking, and running opportunities. Visit the Billingstrailnet.org site for more information.
