From scenic day hikes in Glacier National Park to multi-day wilderness excursions in the Bob Marshall Wilderness, there is something for everyone to enjoy.

Hiking Flathead Lake

If you are near Bigfork, Wayfares State Park is a good place to stop and camp.  Not worry,, if you are on the opposite side of the Lake, in Lakeside the trails are all but endless.  Blacktail Mountain Ski Resort, just outside of Lakeside is the best hiking opportunity.  The south side of Flathead Lake, near Polson provides limited hiking.  If you continue to travel south into the Mission Valley hiking trails are available for you to enjoy.

In addition to hiking trails, there are ample campgrounds, both public and private around the Flathead Lake.

Bears start emerging from dens in March, and some don’t den until late fall or early winter. Mountain bikers, trail runners, and other recreationists take note and read our brochure on fast-paced recreation in bear country! When you are on the trails, expect bears to be present.

Enjoy a Short Video from Glacier National Park

Glacier National Park

Throughout time, people have sought out Glacier National Park. It’s  rugged peaks, clear waters, and glacial-carved valleys; its landscape giving both desired resources and inspiration to those persistent enough to venture through it.

Hiking in Glacier National Park
Hiking in Glacier National Park

Explore things to see and do in The Park. Established as a National Park in 1910 it is a land of mountain ranges carved by prehistoric ice rivers. It features alpine meadows, deep forests, waterfalls, about 25 glistening glaciers and 200 sparkling lakes.

The vistas seen from Going-To-The-Sun Road are breathtaking, a photographer’s paradise. Relatively few miles of road exist in the park’s 1,600 square miles of picturesque landscape, thus preserving its primitive and unspoiled beauty.

West Glacier anchors the western entrance to The Park and provides a variety of visitor services including lodging, cafes and gift shops.
