Going to the Sun road , Logans Pass and Hidden lake are a few of the many amazing sites to see in this majestic park . The hike to Hidden Lake is amazingly beautiful and breathtaking...with wildlife :)

Watch Out For: Grizzly bears , black bears , and mountain lions. Store food and cooking equipment in a vehicle or in a food/storage locker, try to avoid hiking alone, & keep bear spray on hand. Read more

Winter snow is the perfect canvas for spotting animal tracks -- and possibly the animals themselves. You may see coyotes, lynx, moose, elk , beavers, snowshoe hares or even the elusive mountain lion. Read more

All the trails I wanted to do were closed due to snow or bay activity but we still had a blast going to hidden lake overlook in the snow... mid-July ???? Views are marvelous.

Enjoy ranger-led snowshoe hikes or explore the 10 miles of the Going-to-the-Sun Road that the park service maintains in winter. Read more

West glacier has the avalanche Lake and lot of restaurants and seems like a busy place but East glacier has the grinnel glacier and red rock hikes but very less amenities around

Hidden lake hike is really awesome at Logan's pass. I'd recommend Taking the redbud up as parking is like gambling in Vegas .

After you explore the main sites, try the road to the tiny settlement of Polebridge and then on a better maintained dirt road to Bowman Lake !

I count at least half a dozen venues for this one park . Pick your favorite and check in to that one, I guess?

Ask a ranger for hike suggestions. They know where the tourists aren't as likely to be.

Národní park Glacier je přírodním šperkem Montany. Nápadně připomíná alpskou scenerii obnažených ledovcových velikánů.

Lake McDonald is one of the glimmering crown jewels of Montana's Glacier National Park. It's relatively small, but it more than compensates with its pebble beaches and glacial reflections. - Condé Nast Traveler
