Getting Around:

Montana is a big state, with thousands of miles of open roads – and there’s no better way to explore it than traveling by road. Car rental services are widely available to get you from the airport to the state’s top attractions and everywhere in between. US-93 is the main road in our immediate vicinity. You can drive all the way around the lake and explore several charming towns along the way.



Traveling between Chicago and Portland/Seattle, the Empire Builder train serves Amtrak stations along Montana's Highline. There are multiple stops near Glacier National Park and several small towns.
