Glacier National Park is a national park located in the U.S. state of Montana, on the Canada–United States border. Glacier National Park encompasses an area of over 1 million acres. This area includes sections of two mountain ranges, these are sub-ranges of the Rocky Mountains, over 130 named lakes, more than 1,000 different species of plants, and hundreds of species of animals.
Lake McDonald Valley is the hub of activity on the west side of Glacier National Park. Once occupied by massive glaciers that carved this area thousands of years ago, the valley is now filled with spectacular sights, hiking trails, diverse species of plants and animals, historic chalets, and the grand Lake McDonald Lodge.
Going-to-the-Sun Road, a winding 50-mile highway that follows the Continental Divide through Glacier National Park, gives its visitors spectacular views of rolling green meadows, weaving rivers, and evergreen trees, with a new view of the Rocky Mountains’ snowy peaks around every bend in the road. Be awed by the smallest wildflowers, the highest peak, and all the views and wildlife in between, when you walk, bike, drive, or even cross-country ski along this one-of-a-kind road.
