Description
Bike, Hike & Raft in Glacier and Waterton Lakes National Parks
Montana’s Glacier National Park possesses an untamed beauty with majestic ever-changing views. Sharply etched mountains tower above evergreen forests, glacier-carved valleys, alpine meadows and deep blue lakes. The incredible scenery, combined with some inspiring biking, exhilarating hiking and a fun-filled rafting excursion down the Flathead River, creates a truly rewarding family multisport adventure. On foot, trek past glacier-fed lakes in the shadow of majestic peaks. Travel into the heart of the park on Going-to-the-Sun Road, which, according to Outside magazine, "provides a year’s worth of extraordinary mountain scenery in one trip. And enjoy the unique camaraderie among fellow travelers that comes from sharing tales of the day’s adventures around a crackling campfire.
