GNP: Avalanche Lake Trail
This scenic trail is located off of Trail of the Cedars at Glacier National Park. Plan to take Trail of the Cedars to Avalanche Lake trail (an in and out trail, 4 miles roundtrip) and then finish the Trail of the Cedars loop.
For prime parking and less crowded trails, be sure to plan your hike to Avalanche Lake in the morning. It’s a moderate hike with slight elevation gains and loses. And remember to be bear aware on your hike here or anywhere in the park. This sign at the beginning of the trailhead was a bleak reminder of such dangers.
So, take precautions but don’t miss this hike! Pictures can’t begin to capture the amazing views you’ll see along the way and at the end of the trail. The cedars offer a pleasant aroma to complement your hike.
The picturesque view of Avalanche lake at the end of the hike is a don’t miss hike at Glacier National Park.
