Prepare for a breathtaking sight at Virginia Falls, a true gem tucked away in Glacier National Park. To reach it, you'll embark on a popular and scenic hike of about 3.6 miles round-trip, which is a highlight in itself, taking you past the equally stunning St. Mary Falls. The trail is a moderate climb with some elevation gain, but the reward is immense as you get to stand in the cool mist of the powerful, cascading water. It's an unforgettable experience and a favorite for many who visit the park.

Despite large parts of the park being affected by wildfires in 2017, the landscape remains absolutely stunning—there’s always something to look at, something to admire.
