Yellowstone Vacations Snowmobile Rentals

A wide range of groomed trails are available for riders of all skill levels, from beginner to intermediate to advanced. You can check out the nearby Custer Gallatin and Caribou-Targhee National Forests. Just a couple of popular examples are:

• Madison Arm Loop – 20 miles; located northwest of West Yellowstone, groomed, great for beginners, with views of Hebgen Lake and the south fork of the Madison River.
• Two Top Trail – 30 miles; located in West Yellowstone, groomed, one of the most famous trails in North America, 2,000 feet elevation gain, with unique views of “snow ghosts” (trees caked in snow from the constant driving winds) and surrounding mountain ranges.

Helmets are included, and we supply one tank of gas. Note: rental rates do not include applicable tax of 4% or clothing.

Rentals are available December 15, 2023 through March 15, 2024

• Reservation Hours: 7:30am – 5:00pm.
• Rental Hours: 7:30am – 5:00pm, seven days a week.

*Availability of winter activities subject to weather and snow conditions.

All snowmobile rentals include a DOT-approved helmet, but there is some additional equipment you will want for your safety and comfort: a full body snowmobile suit, insulated boots and insulated gloves/mittens. Don’t have your own snowmobile gear? Not to worry; Yellowstone Vacation Tours has suits and boots. You can reserve snowmobile clothing when you make your reservation, and you will then be sized on-site when you arrive. With the gear described above, most riders will be comfortable enough wearing jeans, thermal underwear and a long sleeve shirt. You are welcome to dress warmer if you like, but we recommend dressing in layers so you can better regulate your own personal temperature. Some other items you may want to bring with you or purchase in advance include gloves, a boxed lunch, backpack, wool socks, balaclava (face mask), sunglasses or goggles and, of course, your camera.

• Damage Agreement (optional): $750 deductible, $25 per day
• All Snowmobile Rentals, both inside and outside of Yellowstone National Park: must be 16 years of age and have a valid US or International driver’s license to drive a snowmobile. Valid driver’s license must be PRESENT at the time of the snowmobile rental to be able to drive.
• All snowmobile rentals require pre-payment by a Visa®, MasterCard®, Discover® or American Express® credit card, which will be billed for the full cost of each rental, including tax. Unapproved credit card charges will result in reservation cancellation.
• ​Must be age 18+ to make a reservation and check-in.

If you’re more interested in buying than renting, Yellowstone Vacation Tours offers great machines in great condition, at great prices. The maintenance program we follow (every 1,000 miles) far exceeds original equipment manufacturers’ recommendations. This maintenance program and our summer storage procedures are the reason for rental longevity, far exceeding the mileage you typically see “wear out” a privately owned machine. Plus, each snowmobile goes through a pre-delivery checklist before being shipped. Buyers of our machines will receive a copy of our procedures, and if closely followed, they can greatly extend the life of their snowmobiles.
