East Glacier NP, MT

East Glacier NP, MT

Visiting East Glacier was an absolute dream,  and if you love hiking, this place will steal your heart. 

• Hike 1: Lake Grinnell and Glacier - Many Glaciers Area

Our all-time favorite! • About 10.6 miles round trip with a 2,080 ft elevation gain.

From the very first steps, the trail opens into wide views of turquoise water, wildflowers, and towering peaks. The reward? A lake so blue and magical, it doesn't even look real.

Hike 2: Saint Mary Lake & Virginia Falls This trail feels like a waterfall lover's paradise!

  • You'll pass four stunning falls along the way - each one prettier than the last. About 3 miles round trip, with 200 ft elevation gain, it's short, sweet, and unbelievably scenic. The finale at Virginia Falls is pure magic - mist, roar, and rainbow sprays. 
Sadly, our furry friends had to stay behind again (pups aren't allowed on the trails in national parks). But when we let them out later, Nora had the most unexpected surprise, a young deer walked up to her, completely smitten!  He followed her around, totally enchanted... cutest crush story ever.

Visiting Glacier National Park? 1000x YES.  Turquoise lakes, waterfalls, sunrises, wildlife, and hikes that feel like stepping into another world.   Add this to your bucket list, you won't regret it!

See you on our next adventure,

With love, The team
