Stretching from Canada to Mexico, 550 miles of the 3,100-mile Continental Divide Scenic Trail (CDT) ribbon through Montana’s Rocky Mountains, including 110 miles through Glacier National Park. Beginning at the trail's northern end in Goat Haunt, the trail winds down to the southern end of the park at Marias Pass, traversing the Many Glacier, St. Mary and Two Medicine valleys. Whether you plan to spend a few hours day-hiking, a few nights out backpacking or hiking the trail in its entirety (thru-hiking), Western Montana’s section of the CDT offers an unforgettable journey amid alpine meadows, towering peaks and untouched wilderness of the Crown of the Continent.
For those interested in day-hiking sections of the CDT, visit the National Park Service Hiking the Trails page. For those interested in backpacking on the CDT within Glacier National Park, you'll need a backcountry permit for overnight camping. For more information on permits and reservations, check out the National Park Service Backcountry Camping page.
