What To Expect

West Glacier

The gateway town just outside of the west Going to the Sun entrance. If you need to pick up anything, like coffee, gas, or bear spray, West Glacier is the last full-service town you'll see until the end of your 2 hour Going to the Sun drive.

Lake McDonald

This is where you'll take in your first views of Lake McDonald, the largest lake in Glacier National Park.

Sacred Dancing Cascade

The second of the two cascading McDonald Creek falls. Visitors can either stop at each roadside pullover, or just take the McDonald's Creek Trail to visit both. If you turn around at McDonald's fall, the total time is only one hour, and about a mile long.

Trail of the Cedars

The Trail of the Cedars is renowned for its Western Red Cedar and Hemlock rainforest. The Ttrail is an easy, flat, half-mile loop, although many hikers will choose to continue on to Avalanche Lake.

Avalanche Lake

To reach the famous lake, hikers will start at the Trail of the Cedars Trailhead. At four-and-a-half miles, or just over seven kilometers, the Avalanche Lake Trail passes through more rainforest, multiple waterfalls, and up to a crystal clear glacial lake, reflecting Avalanche Peak.

Garden Wall

This overlook allows you to get a first view of the Mc Donald Valley before heading up to the higher altitiudes of the Garden Wall.

Logan Pass

At a whopping 6,600 feet above sea level, Logan Pass is the highest elevation on the road. There's a lot to see and do here, including several famous trails and the Logan Pass Visitor Center.

Highline Trail

One of the most popular trails on the Going-to-the-Sun Road, the Highline Trail in Glacier National Park is a spectacular 11.8-mile path that follows the Continental Divide, offering breathtaking views of alpine meadows, rugged mountain peaks, and diverse wildlife.

Lunch Creek

Hidden in a hairpin turn, Lunch Creek Pullover is where water cascades down Pollock Mountain. Take a short walk down to the observation deck to take in the sights and sounds.

Piegan Pass

Piegan Pass is a popular hike, but at over nine miles long, it’s definitely a full-day adventure. First, the trail follows along Siyeh Creek, through a thick, spruce-fir forest, and up to the barren, rocky pass between Siyeh and the Cataract Mountains.

Jackson Glacier Overlook

Jackson Glacier Overlook is where you can see Jackson, the park’s 7th largest remaining glacier, and learn a little about glaciers and their fate in the park.

St. Mary Falls

If you’re up for a short hike, we highly recommed the St. Mary Falls Trail. It’s only one-and-a-half miles to the falls and back, with less than 200 feet of elevation change. If you want to double your falls, you can take the trail down to Virginia Falls, for a total of three miles round trip.

Siyeh Pass

This quick hike is great to take on its own, or with St. Mary's falls. It’s just over a mile to Baring Falls and back.

Sun Point Nature Trail

The picture-perfect promontory of Sun Point is a great place to look out over St. Mary lake. You may also want to set out on the Sun Point Nature Trail, a two-mile, or three-kilometer hike that offers stunning views of Saint Mary Lake, Baring Falls, and Red Eagle Mountain.

Wild Goose Island Lookout

Wild Goose Island lookout is a great place to stop and practice your photography skills. From left to right, you’ll see the following mountains: Red Eagle, Mahtotopa, Little Chief, Dusty Star, and Citadel.

Saint Mary Visitor Center

At the St. Mary Visitor Cnter, you can browse the bookstore and exhibits, and watch a film on the history of the park. You can also swing by the restroom and fill up your water bottles.
