Biking

You can access all the roads that a car can access but you'll be able to appreciate the jagged peaks and glacier fed lakes much more by taking a slower pace. more info

There are no bicycle rentals within the park but surrounding towns are likely to supply you with a bike rental throughout the length of your visit. You will find a few operations that run biking tours of the area. These tours extend anywhere from one to ten days and cover a vast area of land. You can also choose to plan your own route through the park's roads and bike paths.
Restrictions are set on Going to the Sun Road in the heart of the summers. From June 15th to Labor Day bicyclists are prohibited between Apgar and Sprague Creek Campgrounds, as well as east of Logan Creek Pass, between the hours of 11am to 4pm. You can choose to ride early in the day or in the evening as the rides are only 45 minutes between Apgar and Sprague Creek and a three hour loop east of Logan Creek. There are a number of campgrounds that are well suited for hikers and bicyclists. These include Apgar, Avalanche, Fish Creek, Many Glacier, Rising Sun, Sprague Creek, St. Mary and Two Medicine.
Remember that bikes are allowed on roadways and bike paths only in Glacier National Park. In Waterton Lakes National Park, the Canadian side of the park, mountain bikes can access some trails. Make sure to obey all traffic signs and keep as far right as possible. Always ride in single file and wear bright clothing. In fog or low light it is recommended to have a front and tail light on your bike. Stay safe and enjoy your biking adventure through Glacier National Park.
