Nice park, good to walk the dog etc.. Not really the attraction it is made out to be. The rimrock a are beautiful but unfortunately the view is of a very industrialized Billings with it's several refineries pumping out a ton of emissions. Not really the natural experience I was hoping for.
While Billings MT is a small town in the scheme of things it was still a pleasant surprise to get up to The Rimrocks and get a different view of the area. You have a good walking track or jogging track which gives you views over all downtown and the Yellowstone Kelly memorial and Boothill as well. A nice side bar to a visit to Billings and worth a look when in the area.
The Rimrocks are called The Rims, they are made of sandstone and were the shore of the ocean was eighty million years ago. All over this area you can find structures that are the same and down into Wyoming. They have often been called Rimrock Beach because there were always girls sun tanning up there in High School. This has often been a place where young adults get together and cars have been driven off for reasons that are unknown to me. I have parts from these cars that are from the 1950s, the earliest I have found was a Ford Model T. They have always been excellent for rock climbing, but the sandstone can crumble apart. Up on the Rims is where the airport is, so at eighty feet higher than the Yellowstone Valley, the scenery is incredible.
If you visit Billings going to the rims is a must. Just keep a tight grip on the kiddos, because, while scenic, you are on a cliff. There are good trails along much of the rims for hiking or running.
Great views,directions were poor,difficult to find our way back down into Billings. We had to ask some people for help to get back into town.
Our grandson's favorite place to go in Billings!! Had to experience ourselves. Nice place to walk and view the city.
The view was quite good but it was pretty rundown. They could spend a small amount of money and make it into something people would stop in to see since it is right across from the Airport.
It's a shelf outcropping above the town. Sorry nothing special. We left the town from this area so it was not out of our way. Honestly, not worth a special trip
Sandy trails to the bluffs overlooking Billings. Explore as much or little as you please. Great for dog walking and mountain biking too. Fantastic views.
I love the Rimrocks view it allows you so see the city on a hole new perspective on Billings. you can see so much more from a higher point of view and its a great spot to go for a walk or a little rock climb.
The paths are not well marked but that's a big part of the draw. Once you explore beyond the area immediately adjacent to the parking lot atop Zimmerman Trail you realize the topography is fantastic and the views stunning. The parkland goes on and on for acres and much of it is unspoiled. Go on a clear day or perhaps sunrise or sunset when the lighting is stunning. A must see!
On a clear day you can see the whole Billings area. The road runs past the airport. It was the Fourth of July and all the Cliffside parking was roped off. The houses in the area were spectacular.
First of all, there is basically little to no signage, so good luck finding the place w/o a map app on your handheld. The road up is easy enough, it's the same one that takes you to the airport, but there's not much to point you west to Zimmerman Park (about 5 miles west). Once you get to Zimmerman Park, there's one paved trail that leads 50 yards out to a monument to the Zimmermen Brothers. From there you are left to a hodgepodge of unmaintained dirt paths that spread out in several directions. There is no signage or discernible loop. The entire park is littered with broken glass - a mind-boggling amount actually. The Billings Parks Dept or whoever maintains this area should be embarrassed!! Finally, while it is true that the Rimrocks provide a panoramic vista to take in Billings, may of the scenic Vistas have phone and power lines directly in your line of sight.This place is a complete waste of time.** PET OWNERS - lots of glass, foxtails and rattlesnakes **
The Rimrocks are unique to Billings, and they provide magnificent views of the city! We walked the trails in Zimmerman Park and were able to see for miles. Very remarkable experience, don't miss this!
We drove up here twice to look around and take a hike. Loved the drive up Zimmerman Trail, as well as the view from the top. Billings is a great place to visit.
