Glacier Paradise

July 1 to September 21, 2025, entrance to Many Glacier Valley beyond the entrance station will only be possible for those with a day hiker shuttle ticket, commercial service reservation, lodging reservation, or wilderness camping permit.

For this time period, a temporary Many Glacier Day Hiker Shuttle will be available. Shuttle tickets can only be purchased on Recreation.gov.

Curious about what lies behind the curtain? These photos should give you an idea of the high level of disturbance caused by construction. Despite the project’s large scale, completion is expected around mid-May 2026.
