Scenery, wildlife abound in Glacier National Park
says a must-do for visitors, especially while taking a Red Bus
Tour, is traveling Going-to-the-Sun Road, a national historic
landmark stretching 50 miles through the park from West Glacier
to St. Mary that crosses the Continental Divide at Logan Pass.
For hikers and bikers, the park offers more than 700 miles
of maintained hiking trails for all levels of experience. Fall
and spring are the most popular seasons for bikers to travel
Going-to-the-Sun Road.
The wilderness areas in the park are considered one of the
most intact ecosystems of the contiguous United States, so
adventurers can expect to see grizzly and black bears, bison,
deer, mountain goats, bighorn sheep, elk, moose, wolves,
eagles, lynx and a variety of fish.
