Overview

About

Embark on an adventure through the pristine wilderness of Great Glacier Provincial Park. Here, the call of the wild is answered with a myriad of activities that promise to elevate your spirit of exploration. Traverse the vast network of hiking trails, each leading to stunning vistas and serene landscapes. For those seeking a challenge, the park's rugged terrain offers exhilarating rock climbing experiences. While the park's embrace is vast, it holds no campgrounds within its bounds, ensuring that every adventure is a day trip into the heart of nature's grandeur.

When to go

The ideal time to visit Great Glacier Provincial Park is during the summer months, from June to September, when the trails are clear and the weather is most favourable for outdoor activities. Winter visitors can expect a serene, snow-covered landscape, perfect for snowshoeing and cross-country skiing, though some areas may be inaccessible due to heavy snowfall.

Know before you go

  • Ensure you check the park's website for any trail closures or safety advisories before your visit.
  • Wear appropriate footwear and clothing to navigate the park's diverse terrain comfortably.
  • Be mindful of wildlife and maintain a safe distance at all times.
  • Carry a map and a compass, as cell service can be unreliable in remote areas of the park.
  • Remember to pack out all trash, as the park operates on a 'leave no trace' principle.
