    The location could not be better, checking/out was simple, house was clean and fully loaded. We could not have asked for anything more.

  • Rafting Testimonial

    Great ride! The views were amazing. Connor was our guide and did a great job sharing his knowledge of the route. I actually jumped in the river, and it was quite refreshing! I highly recommend spending time exploring Glacier National Park with Glacier Guides and Montana Raft. They are very professional and make the ride more fun.

  • Group Trip Testimonial

    Our group went on a 4 day, 3 night backpacking trip. Jordan, our guide, made sure we knew about the foliage, animals, how to stay safe, were well fed and that we stayed hydrated. It truly went perfect, we will be visiting again.

  • Chalet Testimonial

    Glacier Guides three day Chalet backpacking trip is about as good as it gets. You get the opportunity to do backcountry hiking led by experienced guides AND you can leave the 40 pound backpack home! All food and sleeping quarters are provided at the Granite Chalet as you day hike through the beauty of Glacier National. Our group was a fun and interesting bunch from all over the U.S. that loved the outdoors and who were very pleasant companions. A great experience run by a truly professional company.

September backpacking in Glacier National Park! A September backpacking in Glacier National Park!

Ah, Glacier Park in the early fall. As the sun’s angle shifts, the mood here does, too. Everything goes golden and slows down. It’s an amazing and relaxing time of the year to visit. Plan your trip to Glacier National Park: September Edition!

While backpacking in September, Glacier’s famous blue lakes can seem even bluer as they reflect the changing golden trees. In the West Glacier area, the trees typically begin changing color in early to mid September. It’s one of our favorite times in the park!!
