Few places on the planet look as perfectly carved by God as Glacier. Each valley in the park has picture-perfect U-shaped valleys filled with lakes, waterfalls, and wildflowers. The most famous feature of the park is the Going-to-the-Sun road, an engineering marvel designed to get you from one side of the park to the other. Glacier has so many ways to enjoy its scenic beauty: Kayaking, boat rides, Red Bus Tours, or just enjoying the views from one of its historic lodges.
IMPORTANT: During summer 2025, the road past the Many Glacier Hotel T-intersection will be closed for construction. Trail access will still be allowed for trails such as Ptarmigan Tunnel (and points beyond), Iceberg Lake, and Swiftcurrent Pass, but the Swiftcurrent Motor Inn, gift shop, restaurant, campground, and ranger station will be closed. Due to extremely limited parking during construction in the Swiftcurrent area, the park will restrict personal vehicle access into Many Glacier and provide a shuttle service for hikers to access Many Glacier. From July 1, 2025 to September 21, 2025, no general public entrance will be allowed in Many Glacier without a shuttle, commercial service, or lodging reservation. See the park construction page for more information. To use the hiker shuttle service, hikers will need to obtain a timed ticket for their party to board the shuttle. These tickets will be available on Recreation.gov beginning on June 24, 2025. More details on the Many Glacier hiker shuttle service are available here.
