If you’re seeking an outdoor adventure to escape the stresses of city life, then the rocky mountainscape of Montana could be your ideal destination. Here, you’ll be able to experience the wonders of the Glacier National Park. Here are the best reasons to visit the Glacier National Park on your next wilderness trip.
Going-To-The-Sun Road
Strange name aside, Going-to-the-Sun Road is a captivating 50-mile stretch of road that will provide you with plenty of visual pleasure no matter what time of day you drive down it. This beautiful route takes you past glacial lakes, waterfalls, Logan Pass, the highest point of the road that takes you over the Continental Divide.
Horseback Riding
While an ideal place to hike, the trails of Glacier National Park were initially used for horseriding, making them an authentic place to go horseback riding. Plus, there’s nothing like exploring all of the park’s beauty from horseback.
The Northern Lights
While many people travel to Scandinavia in order to see the beauty of the Northern Lights for themselves, many travellers may not reason that these sights exist in parts of the United States as well. As a certified International Dark Sky Park, Glacier National Park is an ideal place to witness the Northern Lights, with the view expected to be particularly strong over 2024 and 2025 due to increased solar activity.
