Glacier Guides & Montana Raft Insider's Guide To Glacier National Park

At Glacier Guides and Montana Raft, we’re locals, and we love Glacier National Park with all of our hearts. So, we decided to share the love and put together our very own Glacier National Park Insider’s Guide. In it, you’ll find our recommendations on the top 10 adventures in Glacier. We also weigh in on what to pack, where to eat, what to drink, and where to stay. You’ll also find information on typical weather conditions around Glacier. We’ve even listed our our favorite things to do in the neighboring communities.

What we see today in the park, Government shutdown What we see today in the park, Government shutdown or not… Glacier still waits and visitors continue to make their way into the park today, driving Going-to-the-Sun Road and soaking in the fall colors. 🍂 We are still operating with Scenic Floats, Nature Walk Hikes, Ebike/Bike rentals, and gear rentals through the 14th 🍂

Please remember: with limited staff + services during the shutdown, plan ahead. Pack out what you pack in, respect closures, and recreate responsibly!
The Fall fun continues with many of our services o The Fall fun continues with many of our services offered until another awesome season wraps up on October 14th - stop by for a day trip, guided tour, bear spray rentals, info and advice on the park, e-bike rentals, and more at our West Glacier location: 11970 US-Hwy-2! Call 406.387.5555 with questions about booking for this year AND next year!! (:
A note for our Fall Fanatic visitors - vehicle res A note for our Fall Fanatic visitors - vehicle reservations are quickly wrapping up for the 2025 season! Starting September 29th, you can drive the West Side of Going-to-the-Sun Road and the North Fork without a reservation. That means more spontaneous fall adventures, golden larch views, and access to some of Glacier’s classic hikes before the snow sets in ♥
