Glacier National Park, Montana

Working out where to go? Browse the trip reports by objective for this area, and check the forecast before you commit.

Just across the border, and a popular cross-border objective for the community. Reservable sites book on Recreation.gov on a rolling window (see the NPS reservation campgrounds and first-come, first-served pages).

• Reservable — Apgar, Fish Creek, Sprague Creek, Avalanche (Going-to-the-Sun Road corridor); Rising Sun, St. Mary (east); Many Glacier
• First-come, first-served — Bowman Lake, Kintla Lake, Logging Creek, Quartz Creek (North Fork, unpaved roads), and Cut Bank (east) — all small and quick to fill; arrive early
• Two Medicine (normally reservable) is closed for the 2026 season for construction — verify before planning around it.
• Hostels and huts — Hostelling International has no property in Montana, and the Alpine Club of Canada's huts are all north of the border. (A US park entrance pass is required; a separate vehicle/timed-entry reservation was not required as of the 2026 season, but confirm on nps.gov/glac.)
