Fun Facts

Glacier National Park was established in 1910 as the 10th U.S. national park, protecting over one million acres of Rocky Mountain wilderness.
The park once contained around 150 named glaciers; fewer than 25 remain active today due to long-term climate changes.
The historic Going-to-the-Sun Road was completed in 1932 and is considered one of the greatest engineering feats of its era.
Glacier and Canada’s Waterton Lakes National Park form the world’s first International Peace Park, designated jointly in 1932 by both nations.
