The Lineham Creek Trail in Waterton Lakes National Park follows a steady forested route alongside the creek, leading toward the base of Lineham Falls. The trail gains elevation gradually, offering mountain views and open meadows along the way. It’s a moderate hike with a clear path and plenty of shade, ending at a lookout that gives a striking view of the tall twin falls cascading down the cliff ahead. Make sure to keep an eye out for bears as they're known to frequent the area!

Red Rocks Point is a scenic pullout along Going-to-the-Sun Road, just west of McDonald Creek’s tumbling cascades. It’s an easy place to miss—but worth a pause. Park (or dismount your bike) and follow the short path down to broad, rust-colored rocks that give the spot its name. From here, you’ll get a striking view of the creek as it rushes through carved channels, especially vibrant in early summer. It’s a peaceful spot for a quick rest or a picnic, with the layered peaks of Glacier National Park rising in the distance and the sound of water all around.

Going right under the road, Haystack creek falls is a beautiful natural and man-made sight, with impressive masonry work to create the tunnel, and a natural wonder running underneath.

Beautiful little "waterfall" on the side of the road, easy to see from the railing

The Virginia Falls are a waterfall in Glacier National Park that is worth seeing. They are relatively easy to reach on foot from the Going-to-the-Sun Road. The distance is about 3 km, and the elevation changes are moderate. The challenge, however, will be to get one of the few parking spaces.

McDonald Falls, renowned for their natural beauty, stand out as the most accessible waterfalls within Glacier National Park. Observe the mesmerizing sight of creek waters cascading over rugged rocks and flowing downstream. These falls are conveniently visible from the roadside.
