East Glacier Park is one of the gateways to Glacier National Park, at its southeast corner, on the Blackfeet Reservation. It’s a small, friendly village amidst spectacular scenery. You’ll find motels, several restaurants, grocery store and deli, picnic supplies, craft and antique shops, car rentals and shuttle services, bicycle rentals, horse rentals, historic lodge, nine-hole golf course, guided tours of the Park, public cybercafé, bar lounges, gift shops, laundromats, ATM, and filling station. The Catholic Church has weekly Mass. See Activities Page for times.


What you will NOT find here are: banking, health care, prescription pharmacy, beauty salon, or automotive mechanic.


East Glacier is near excellent fishing, hunting, numerous hiking trails, seasonal Indian cultural events and rodeo. Winter allows very good skiing, snowmobiling, and snowshoeing. Scenic spots include: Going-To-The-Sun-Road of Glacier National Park, Two Medicine Valley, numerous waterfalls, overlooks, lakes, and streams. Wildlife is commonly seen: moose, bear, deer, elk, mountain goats, and many smaller creatures.


Amtrak stops in the village in summer, and many motels have pickup service for guests. We’re 79 miles east of Glacier International Airport in Kalispell, 132 miles northwest of Great Falls International Airport, and 220 miles south of Calgary International Airport. Airport Shuttle Express provides service from Calgary to East Glacier, as well as other points.


The center of town is at the intersection of U.S. Highway 2 and State Highway 49.


Advance reservations are suggested for motels, especially in peak summer months.
