6. Take in the Night Sky From Lake McDonald
Glacier National Park has well over 100 lakes within the park, but a fan favorite and one that most tourists make sure to see up close and personal is Lake McDonald.
Lake McDonald is notable for its beauty and size; it is ten miles long and almost 465 feet deep, making it the broadest and deepest lake in Glacier National Park.
The lake is the perfect place to post up on your trip to Glacier, as there’s a decent chance you’ll be able to see wildlife in their natural habitat, and the lake’s size means that you can enjoy the water without feeling overwhelmed by the crowds.
7. Wander Around Lewis and Clark Caverns State Park
Located in Whitehall, Montana, the Lewis and Clark Caverns State Park is an absolute must for outdoor enthusiasts visiting the area. While visitors can enjoy all that the park has to offer above ground on their own, park staff will need to accompany you on any cavern tours.
A visit to the park offers visitors the opportunity to enjoy many of Montana’s recreational activities like hiking, biking, camping, fishing, and learning about the wildlife native to the area, like the resident bats.
