Going-to-the-Sun Road
50 miles bisecting Glacier National Park east-to-west across the Continental Divide at Logan Pass — hanging cliffs, alpine meadows, and the most engineered scenic drive in the NPS.
What you'll hit along the way.
Rider-verified stops, overlooks, fuel, and the corners worth knowing about — in the order you'll meet them.
St. Mary (east end)
East entrance terminus — fuel, food, and the only easy reroute south to US-89 or north to Many Glacier.
Jackson Glacier Overlook
One of the few remaining glaciers visible from the road — small pull-off with interpretive signs about glacier retreat.
Logan Pass
Continental Divide at 6,646 ft — visitor center, Hidden Lake trail, mountain goat and bighorn sheep central. Arrive before 9am for parking.
The Loop
The only switchback on the route — sharp hairpin with parking, trailhead for Granite Park Chalet, and the start of the cliff section.
Lake McDonald Lodge
1913 historic lodge on the 10-mile glacial lake — boat tours, log lobby with massive stone fireplace, and the last food before the climb east.
West Glacier entrance
West entrance station — vehicle reservation required in summer, fuel up in West Glacier village just outside the gate.
