Favorite Glacier National Park Hikes 🏔

items These are my favorite hikes from Glacier National Park in Montana. They are day hikes, no camping. I stayed on the east side which I highly reccomend as then you do not have to worry about timed entry which makes the whole trip a lot easier! A must d...
Map
This was the BEST hike I have ever been on. The pictures do not do it justice. I think this is one of the more underrated trails. It is a long hike 15 miles with elevation so it is definitely for an intermediate hiker. It took us pretty much all day ...
The Garden Wall via the Highline Trail with Grinnell Glacier Overlook
This is an 11 mile out and back and pretty challenging. However, this is what everyone comes for! Must see hike. Its nice and cool at the Glacier so pack layers. You get really nice views of Grinnel lake as you climb up to the glacier. This is in the...
Grinnell Glacier Trail
This is Grinnell Lake, the lower portion of Grinnel Glacier Trail. Combine both hikes to see both perspectives. If you plan accordingly, you can also reserve the boat from St. Josephine lake to cut off a couple miles of the trail. This is not that d...
Grinnell Lake
The first of 3 waterfalls that you can combine into one long trail via Piegan Pass. We parked at Sun Point parking area which has plenty of spots especially if you get there early and there are restrooms at this trail head. Very easy trail, perfect f...
Baring Falls via Piegan Pass Trail
The next two waterfalls to combine with Baring falls if you take piegan trail or you can do them on their own or even turn back at St. Mary's Falls. At St. Mary's Falls, there is a bridge/rock face area that people jump off of to take a dip. We didn'...
St. Mary and Virginia Falls Trail
This is the path to combine all three water falls! Easily doable. I definitely reccomend making it all the way to Virginia Falls as the waterfall is awesome being right next to it. Its nice and cool after a hot hike. There is a pit toilet at the end ...
Baring, St. Mary, and Virginia Falls via Piegan Pass Trail
Another favorite in which the pictures do not do it justice! Follow the trail all the way down to the lake for stunning views and a quick dip. The lake is perfectly clear with the multicolor rocks. We also saw some mountain goats with their kids whic...
Hidden Lake
Another nice little hike that's not too long. There's parking at the trailhead that is normally not too crowded. Coming back from the hike is uphill and a little overgrown so wear pants. It could potentially get muddy if it rained recently so watch o...
Deadwood Falls via Gunsight Pass Trail
Not a true trail rec but more a lake rec. How could I have a list for Glacier that does not include Lake McDonald? This is the famous lake with the multicolored rocks. Lots of walking trails all around this area that you can stroll through.
