Glacier National Park encompasses over 1 million acres of wilderness and some of the most beautiful mountain scenery in the United States. A combination of spectacular scenery, diverse flora and fauna, and relative isolation from major population centers have combined to make Glacier National Park the center of one of the largest and most intact ecosystems in North America.

The park is open year round but services are limited in the winter months. Summer sees the highest visitation as people from all over the world come to Glacier to sight-see, hike, and breath in the pristine air while enjoying clear glacial lakes. In addition Park Rangers conduct naturalist activities throughout the summer that let you get to know the park and all it has to offer.

Among the most popular activities you will enjoy hiking, biking, boating and fishing. We recommend that you pick an area of the park and then go to that area and make a day of it. Go and see all that is in the area and enjoy it. You spend more quality time and learn and see more than you could ever imagine. If you have just one day this tactic will allow you to experience the park more fully. If you're here a few days you'll just get to see and do more.

There are many lodging options both within and outside Glacier National Park. As this lodging fills early in the year plan on making your reservations as soon as possible. At National Park Reservations we start taking reservations in September for the next year. If you did not make advance reservations, don't give up, call us and see what is open in the park.

Make your next vacation a Glacier National Park vacation!
