Activity itinerary

Glacier National Park
  • 8h
As the audio guides play commentary based on your gps location, you can create your own itinerary along the tour route to match your interests and schedule.
Going-to-the-Sun Road
  • 8h
An engineering feat in Glacier National Park. Created specifically for visitors to drive over the Continental Divide. While it's a short, steep 50 miles, you'll want to spend most of a full day or longer taking in the numerous beautiful viewpoints. Or you can use our trip planners for our suggestions on half, full or multi day itineraries. Some of the many highlights are listed below;
Lake McDonald Lodge
  • 1h
In keeping with many of great lodges built under the direction of the National Park Service, the historic Lake McDonald Lodge has a European Swiss chalet style, crossed with a rustic hunting lodge - though that seems a contradiction with Park values today. Advanced reservations (through NPS) are highlighly recommended if you want to stay overnight, but day visitors are welcome in the restaurants, gift stores and general store. The lobby houses taxidermy collections of mountain animals on its walls. Activities, horseback rides and lake cruises all depart from the lodge.
Haystack Creek Culvert (Pass by)
Pretty waterfalls that flow directly beside the road. Though you won't see it as you drive over, there is a small arch that allows the water to pass directly under the road.
The Loop
  • 10m
Along the drive we will share stories of how this difficult road was planned and constructed. A great deal of care was taken to not "scar" the mountain landscape. The Loop is the location of the only switchback along the journey - surprising for a mountain road. The views from The Loop are impressive and the structures were hand built by stone masons.
Apgar Visitor Center
  • 30m
Located at the lower end of Lake McDonald and roughly 2 miles from the West Glacier Entrance, Apgar offers a visitor center, some gift and camping stores, dining, lodging and boat rentals. The Apgar Campground is the largest campground in Glacier National Park and almost always full.
Triple Arches (Pass by)
On this section, there was no flat terrain to create a road and allow a creek to pass without affecting the roadway. Engineers and stone masons designed a bridge of 3 Arches to create a culvert that blended into the scenery, using rock that was debris from blasting the road route. Triple Arches is the most used image from for postcards for the Going to the Sun Road.
Logan Pass
  • 30m
Logan Pass, the summit of the drive and the highest point we will reach as we cross the mountain pass and home to the Logan Pass Visitor Center. There is a selection of short or long hikes from here that will give you that incredible high alpine environment experience. Also a great place for spotting wildlife.
Lunch Creek
  • 30m
Just a few minutes drive to the east of the Logan Pass Visitor Center, Lunch Creek has been a favourite rest stop for many Going to the Sun Road visitors. If exploring, please stick to to the paved areas and designated trails to help prevent further erosion to this over-loved area.
Weeping Wall (Pass by)
If you are touring early in the season, you might get a free car wash at the Weeping Wall, as the snow melt showers over the road and your vehicle. By fall, you might be wondering what all the fuss was about.
Siyeh Bend
  • 10m
Another section along the route, where the road bends its ways through a gulch carved into the mountainside by a constantly fast flowing creek. Siyeh translates to "mad dog" or "crazy wolf" but no need to fear any rabid beasts here. The pullout provides a place to park off the road and enjoy more great views of the surrounding mountains. The trailhead for some serious hikes into the mountains leave from here.
Wild Goose Island
  • 30m
A punctuation within Saint Mary Lake, tiny Wild Goose Island sits only 10ft above the water, but seems only to add to the beauty at one of the most photographed locations on the Going to the Sun Road.
Route 3
  • 1h
Many Glacier is like a Park within the Park. Just 12 miles off Highway 89 from the town of Babb, Many offers a suberb and stunning collection of views and activities. Hiking options vary from rewarding uphill efforts to Grinnell Glacier, or gentler loop walks around alpine lakes. Lake cruising has been a tradition for Many for decades. Use the cruisers for the pure sightseeing enjoyment or to shorten some of the longer hikes. It's a great wildlife spotting area too! Food services are available as is lodging - but reserve early. Remember that reservations are required to enter Many in peak season.
