The entirety of Going-to-the-Sun Road is now open The entirety of Going-to-the-Sun Road is now open to vehicles for summer 2023! We had an amazing biking season this year, big thanks to everyone who hit the road and saw the sights from two wheels with us. Bike rentals are available all season long, but after June 13th, we are no longer able to offer guided biking/e-biking or our bike shuttle. Now, on to our other adventures of rafting, hiking, backpacking, fishing and lodging. We can't wait to see you out there 💙✨️💛
