Points of Interest


Stop At: Glacier National Park
Montana
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.
Duration: 8 hours

Stop At: Lake McDonald Lodge
288 Lake McDonald Lodge Loop, West Glacier, MT 59936
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.
Duration: 1 hour

Stop At: Haystack Creek Culvert
Going-to-the-Sun Road, Montana
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.
Duration: Not Available

Stop At: Apgar Visitor Center
Montana
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.
Duration: 30 minutes

Stop At: Logan Pass
Montana
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.
Duration: 30 minutes

Stop At: Lunch Creek
Going-to-the-Sun Road, Montana
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.
Duration: 30 minutes

Stop At: Weeping Wall
Going-to-the-sun Road, Montana
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.
Duration: Not Available
