Glacier National Park, Montana: A Hiking Guide & Driving the Going-to-the-Sun Road

Kat Bennett
Glacier National Park is truly one of the most incredible places I have visited in the US and quickly jumped to the very top of my favorite National Parks list! With 700 miles of trails, 24 different glaciers, incredibly diverse landscapes, and a wide array of wildlife, this is a must-visit destination for outdoor enthusiasts! Here’s exactly what you can expect from my Glacier National Park guide 👇 This guide is the result of hours upon hours of planning, research, and my in-person lessons-learned at Glacier National Park and is specifically catered to the West Glacier, St. Mary’s, and Many Glacier Entrances/areas of the park during the warmer months. It includes fun features such as an interactive map, directions that connect directly to your phone’s Google or Apple Maps app, and the exact coordinates to some of my favorite hidden gems & hiking trails. It lays out instructions to help you plan your perfect trip to this area including: 1. Instructions and insider tips on how to get reservations for the famous Going-to-the-Sun Road & Many Glacier Entrance (including the exact secret trick that helped me get my tickets!) 2. Over a dozen outdoor activities (including 11 insane hikes, the best stops to make along the Going-To-The-Sun Road, and other park highlights) 3. Accommodation suggestions including nearby hotels, glamping experiences, unique AirBnBs, park campgrounds, backcountry chalets, and where I stayed during my own trip 4. Direct hyperlinks to every resource you could need to book your trip 5. Behind the scenes exclusive photos and videos from me Plus it’s mobile friendly when you download the Thatch App for free so you can easily access all of the info right from your phone! I have hand-crafted this guide specifically for adventure travelers (like me!) and feel so confident you will have an amazing trip with this guide by your side 😏 As a part of your purchase of the guide, here are a few promises I can make you: 1. This is a LIVING guide: I will update it as I find more information and discover more places which means you have lifetime access to all updated information as it’s added! 2. I only make guides based on areas I have not only been to but know well! I include both activities that I have done myself as well as those that are on my bucketlist for next time I visit! I will always call out the ones I have not done yet and provide you the exact resources you need to experience them yourself! 3. These guides are completely transparent! You can be sure that all unfiltered opinions I provide are my own 🙃 If I include any sponsored information or affiliate links, I will be sure to call these out directly. I will only include these if they benefit you (such as a discount code or coupon!) This guide truly is everything you need to plan your an incredible trip to Glacier National Park all in one place. I can’t wait to hear & see your adventure! Feel free to send me a DM with your feedback, fill out my feedback form at the bottom of the guide, & tag me in your photos! @katbennettphoto
