Top Reasons to Go

Witness the Divide: The rugged mountains that weave their way through Glacier and Waterton along the Continental Divide seem to have glaciers in every hollow melting into tiny streams, raging rivers, and icy-cold mountain lakes.

Just Hike It: There are more than 700 mi of trails that cater to hikers of all levels -- from all-day hikes to short strolls. It's little wonder the readers of Backpacker Magazine rated Glacier the number-one backcountry hiking park in America.

Go to the Sun: Crossing the Continental Divide at the 6,646-foot-high Logan Pass, Glacier's Going-to-the-Sun Road is a spectacular drive.

View the Wildlife:This is one of the few places in North America where all native carnivores, including grizzlies and wolves, still survive. Bighorn sheep, mule deer, coyotes, grizzly bears, and black bears can often be seen from roadways.
