It’s the end of another busy summer season at
Glacier National Park. 🏞️ As a business that depends on the tourism to this beautiful area we are excited to welcome our September guests to The Garrison Inn and those who are able to enjoy a few more weeks here!

With Glacier’s 2026 summer season winding down, a lot of things are changing in the park! Before heading to Glacier, make sure to check for updates, closures, and other information that may impact your visit.

Here are some upcoming changes to be aware of:

🚐The Logan Pass shuttle service is ending for the season. Labor Day (9/7) is the last day of shuttle service up to Logan Pass. If you are planning a trip after September 7 and you are going to be coming to the park in an oversized vehicle or RV, check out our Going-to-the-Sun Road General Info page before arriving to learn about the vehicle size restrictions!

⏱️The three-hour parking limit at Logan Pass will also end on Labor Day (9/7). Be prepared for possible congestion and short-term closures at the Logan Pass parking lot.

💦Water filling stations and flush toilet access at Logan Pass will become unavailable beginning on 9/8. If you are planning on doing any of the hikes in the area, make sure you bring enough water with you. You will not be able to fill up at Logan Pass!

🚽Vault toilets will still be available at Logan Pass until Going-to-the-Sun Road closes for the season.

Check the park’s website or stay tuned here to see what other changes are happening in the park!

Heads up, Many Glacier hikers! 🚧 Trail crews will be working on the Swiftcurrent Lake Loop accessibility project Wednesday–Thursday this week (Aug. 26–27) and Monday–Thursday next week (Aug. 31–Sept. 3).

On those days, the section of trail from the picnic area/Grinnell Glacier trailhead to the boat dock at the head of Swiftcurrent Lake will be closed.

Hikers planning to reach the Grinnell Glacier Trail should expect a brief reroute: if you park in the usual trailhead/picnic area, you’ll simply detour around the east side of Swiftcurrent Lake toward Many Glacier Hotel before beginning the hike. Parking in the hotel area may be tighter than normal, so sticking to your usual parking spot and taking the detour will be the best option for most visitors.

This temporary closure is necessary so trail crews can regrade, widen, and install a hardened surface—work that requires warm, dry weather to properly set and create a safer, more durable walking surface for future visitors.

Thanks for your patience as we improve trail accessibility and visitor safety. 🌲 Plan ahead, allow extra time, and enjoy the views along your reroute!
