Welcome to Roundup, Montana, a historical town located along the
banks of the Musselshell River. Roundup sits in an area surrounded
by hills, which made it an ideal location for large cattle
"roundups" in bygone years.
According to historians,
Roundup was so named because ranchers found the valley near the
Musselshell River a natural place to "round up" their cattle in the
fall of the year. Some say it was named because it was the ending
point of the Texas Trail cattle drives into Montana.
The people of Montana were able to live a piece of history in 1989
when Roundup became the trail head of the Great Montana Centennial
Cattle Drive. Because of the success of the Centennial Cattle Drive,
a cattle drive is now held annually and takes place in late August.
There are a myriad of activities that visitors can enjoy
such as visiting our historical museum, playing golf at our
beautiful Pine Ridge Country Club, taking in the many rodeos,
watching the Bump 'N Run Motor Cross Races. Hunters and
photographers will enjoy the bounty of our wildlife here . . . elk,
