• Lake Sherburne Dam - The construction of Sherburne Dam was led by the U.S. Reclamation Service in 1914, just four years after the park’s establishment. This resulted in the creation of Sherburne Lake, a popular destination for both wildlife and adventurous visitors.
• Apikuni Falls - The 1.6-mile out-and-back trail begins across from the south shore of Lake Sherburne, winding through serene forests with stunning views of the falls. A footbridge crosses over Apikuni Creek, where the cascade drops impressively in multiple stepped tiers for a total of 100 feet.
• Many Glacier Hotel - Opened in 1915, Many Glacier Hotel’s architecture was designed to attract affluent Americans with a taste for European elegance to Montana’s wild and rugged peaks. The soaring 4-story central lobby features giant cedar columns and a massive stone fireplace. Be sure to step inside and take a look!
• Swiftcurrent Lake - Swiftcurrent Lake offers fantastic trails for all skill levels, including the 1-mile Swiftcurrent Nature Trail, ideal for families. For a more challenging hike, try the Grinnell Glacier Trail; take the tour boat to reduce it to a 7-mile round trip. Longer hikes like the Cracker Lake and Continental Divide Trails start nearby, with boat reservations available for added convenience.
• Grinnell Glacier - Grinnell Glacier is one of the park’s most popular hikes, and for good reason. It begins at a low elevation, circling along the shimmering lake, but after a couple of miles, the trail ascends. From the high hills, you’ll overlook Josephine Lake, Angel Wing, and Mount Gould. Continuing upward reveals your first view of Grinnell Glacier–one of the most photographed spots in the park. From the trailhead, it’s a little over 10 miles, or 16 kilometers, round trip.
• Nell’s - If you’ve worked up an appetite, consider stopping in for a meal at Nell’s Restaurant. Located just beside the hotel lobby, it offers burgers, sandwiches, and other delicious, quick-lunch options. They also provide boxed lunches to go. Additionally, near the hotel is a camp store. If you need groceries, camping supplies, or souvenirs, that’s your stop.
• Swiftcurrent Trailhead - Swiftcurrent Trailhead offers a scenic 2.5-mile hike to Red Rock Falls, passing moose-friendly Redrock Lake. Continue to Bullhead Lake or tackle the 7.6-mile Swiftcurrent Pass to Granite Park Chalet. Nearby, the Iceberg-Ptarmigan Trail features a 9.6-mile hike to Iceberg Lake or an 8-mile trek to the historic Ptarmigan Tunnel for breathtaking views.
• Swiftcurrent Pass Hike - This quick roadside overlook provides excellent views of Swiftcurrent Lake, Many Glacier Lodge, and possibly some local mountain goats.
• Cattle Baron Supper Club - The Cattle Baron Supper Club is conveniently located right at the highway junction as you exit the park. This long-standing family establishment, operated by the Burns family since 1915, is famous for its delectable steaks and live music entertainment.
