This area is really so incredibly beautiful.

Whitefish blends small-town charm with big-mountain adventure. Perched on the shore of Whitefish Lake and near the entrance of Glacier National Park, this year-round destination is built around a love for the outdoors, winter brings skiing and snowboarding, summer brings hiking, biking, scenic lift rides, zip lines, and watersports. Downtown is packed with locally owned restaurants, cozy cafés, breweries, and shops, with plenty lodging and live music as well.

Scenic lake with good swimming in summer. The small rural road passes right by the shore. Though much of the shoreline is private, about 150 feet are public access.

Large campground directly on the lake with good swimming, operating for over 100 years, with rustic RV and camp sites, and rustic log cabins built in the 1920s. Located just outside Glacier National Park on Lake Five, three miles west of West Glacier

Despite this lake's glacier-fed nature, the area gets warm enough for there to be a designated swimming area at this little sandy beach. There's also a shade area, gazebos, picnic tables and docks.

Just what the name suggests; moose love this sort of terrain, as they're built to navigate it. If you look on the opposite side of the road you'll catch a glimpse of the far prettier McDonald Creek.

Big Bend is one of the most iconic curves on Going-to-the-Sun Road, where the pavement sweeps in a dramatic arc beneath towering peaks and open sky. Located just west of Logan Pass, it offers a breathtaking vantage point of the upper Garden Wall and the valley far below. There’s a small pullout where you can pause to take in the view—or catch your breath if you're climbing by bike. In summer, wildflowers often blanket the slopes, and waterfalls thread down the cliffs in the distance. It’s a classic Glacier National Park scene, and one of the road’s most photographed spots.

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.
