Glacier Wilderness Guides
Glacier Guides and Montana Raft Co. have the exclusive contract for providing guided hiking and backpacking trips inside Glacier National Park. We also provide whitewater rafting and fishing trips on the North and Middle Forks of the Flathead River. Our season is from the middle of May through the middle of September. Trips range from a half day to a week in length.
HIKING
Every week we offer a 3 day, 4 day and a 6 day backpacking trip as well as day hikes on demand. These trips venture into the heart of Glacier's spectacular backcountry. Routes pass by towering peaks, alpine lakes and waterfalls, meadows ablaze with wild flowers and an abundance of wildlife. It is not unusual to see elk, deer, Big Horn sheep, mountain goats, bear and moose. We take care of the permits, shuttles, all meals, equipment and experienced-knowledgeable guides. Our guides have spent many years in and around Glacier's backcountry. They pack the meals, do an orientation, provide interpretation, cook the meals at camp and do the other camp chores. We make backpacking as easy as possible for our guests.
RAFTING
We run our whitewater rafting trips on the Middle Fork of the Flathead River, which forms the southern boundary of Glacier National Park. Several half day departures leave every day as well a full day. We have 4 overnight raft trips departures each week ranging from two to four days in length. As with our hiking adventures we provide all equipment, shuttles, meals and experienced guides. Both the Middle Fork and the North Fork Rivers have been designated as two of America's Wild and Scenic Rivers. Meaning they're preserved and have changed little in the last hundred years. The North Fork is more of a scenic, mellow float for those who don't want the thrill of whitewater.
FLY FISHING
Our experienced fishing guides have the highest quality equipment and use only traditional Mackenzie drift boats on the calm sections of the Middle and North Forks. These trips range from a half a day to several days and all trips are customized around our guest's abilities and interests.
BACKCOUNTRY CHALET HIKES
Glacier National Park has two backcountry chalets that are only accessible by trail. We lead three to six day adventures to both chalets on a weekly basis. These are a great way to experience Glacier's backcountry in the comfort of an historic chalet.
Come join us for a trip of a lifetime. You Won't Know, If You Don't Go!
