Head to the heart of Montana’s Glacier National Park to experience one of the most beautiful walking and biking trails in Montana. The Apgar Bike Trail is perfect for outdoor enthusiasts and nature lovers who want to discover the park’s beauty. The route weaves through the spectacular Montana landscape, offering a fun combination of adventure, tranquility, and the chance to be immersed in the untamed beauty that only this state can offer. If you choose to explore the trail, I think you’ll appreciate the towering pines, the crystal-clear lake scenery, and the panoramic views of the rugged mountains just as much as we do. Both avid cyclists seeking an exhilarating ride and leisurely walkers in search of a connection to nature will want to add this route to their must-do list.

While you'll find beauty just about anywhere you go in Montana, Glacier National Park is known to be one of the best spots for adventure and views. There are over 700 miles of trails in the park and each mile is an opportunity for a new exploration. Hikers of all experience levels can find something to enjoy here.

The out-and-back paved trail can be picked up near Apgar Campground. When you reach the end, simply turn around and head back the same way you came. This also means you can do just a portion of the trail if you'd like.
