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.

The Park is warming up, and out come our furry fri The Park is warming up, and out come our furry friends! 🐻 Although friend-shaped, these bears require respect and distance in order to keep our road-cycling memories strictly happy. This past week we have seen bears on the road nearly every day! These videos are all taken within the last 5 days. Our bicycle and E-bike rentals are now open!! Guided biking begins next Wednesday, May 7th, with bike shuttles available starting May 10th! Visit GlacierGuides.com or call 406-387-555 to schedule your rental, shuttles, guided tours, and our fabulous Paddle & Pedal combo packages to get you on the road and water for a day FULL of adventure! Remember to be courteous of other cyclists by staying riders’ right of the road, supporting bikes or using kickstands to set bikes out of the paths of fellow riders. Watch out for loose rock along the road, bring plenty of water, layers, sunscreen, tire pumps, eye protection (and of course, bear spray) to start off Spring on the right side of the wheels! 🚲
Come join the team for the summer! Housekeepers ne Come join the team for the summer! Housekeepers needed May through September: Attention to detail and appreciation for fun are necessary for these fast paced positions. Giving our 12 room lodge and 3 bedroom guest house all the love and care they deserve makes up the bulk of these positions. Bonus: you’re typically done by mid afternoon, leaving hours of Montana summer sun still available to light your nearby river and trail adventures! Living at the employee campground is a possibility.
