Fort Peck is located off Highway 24, 20 miles south of Glasgow, or 60 miles north of Highway 200. Highway 24 crosses the top of the dam and Fort Peck Lake is on the south side of the dam. The Interpretive Center and Campground are below the dam to the north and can be reached by turning north off of Highway 24 at the east end of the dam and driving about a mile back toward the town of Fort Peck. The entrance to the campground is just a few hundred feet past the Interpretive Center.
Workers constructed the immense Fort Peck Dam across the Missouri River in the 1930s, creating Montana’s largest lake—a 134-mile long reservoir. The Interpretive Center that opened in 2005 features construction history, as well as large aquariums.
