EasyFor people looking to exercise their minds more than their bodies. There’s minimal walking and not too many stairs.
ModerateThese programs get you on your feet and include activities such as walking up to a mile in a day through a city and standing in a museum for a few hours.
ActiveFor people who enjoy walking as much as two miles a day, perhaps to explore historic neighborhoods or a nature trail.
Moderately ChallengingFor hardy explorers who enjoy a good physical challenge, spending most of their days on the go.
ChallengingGet ready to keep up with our highest-energy group. These demanding — and rewarding — programs are for seasoned outdoor enthusiasts.
Glacier National Park’s 1 million-plus acres offer a bounty of natural phenomena and beauty. Join expert naturalists for an exploration of the many ecosystems that thrive within the park — from coniferous forests to the expansive meadows and slopes of the Rocky Mountains. Gain an understanding of the thousands of plant and animal species that call this great park home, and thrill in a chance to spot mountain goats and grizzly bears. Hike well-followed trails and go off-the-beaten path for an intimate exploration of this UNESCO World Heritage Site.


Highlights

• Journey along Going-to-the-Sun Road — a National Historic Landmark — for spectacular views of the park, including Logan Pass.
• Float down the Middle Fork of the Flathead River during an expert-led rafting exploration of the park.
• Take in the beauty of Many Glacier, known for its dense forests, alpine meadows, lakes and waterfalls.
