1
Tip of the Week
Glacier National Park hiking trails can take you to the top of the world and back. With over 700 miles of magnificent hiking trails, Glacier is truly a hiker's paradise. There are some things to watch out for, though.
Weather. Glacier's weather can be changeable, and snow covers many of the trails even after the park fills up with visitors in the spring. Check with the Visitor's Center to see what trails are open and closed when you arrive.Bears. There are plenty of bears in Glacier, and trail running is discouraged because you may surprise a bear. Make noise when you hike, it encourages the bears to move away from the trails.Mountain Lions. These big cats also inhabit the park. Make noise when you hike to scare them off, and don't run if you encounter a lion, move away slowly and do not make eye contact with the cat.Snowfields. If you encounter a snowfield, use caution, they can hide deep, deadly crevasses. Don't slide across a snowfield, either.One of the most popular Glacier National Park hiking trails is the Trails of the Cedars Nature Trail, which includes a rustic bridge over Avalanche Gorge. Running Eagle Falls and Trails of the Cedars are both wheelchair accessible as well.
