Two Medicine

Looking for things to do in Glacier National Park? Two Medicine is the ideal place to check off your list. If you’re interested in history, make sure to visit the Two Medicine Chalet, a charming old log building where President Franklin D. Roosevelt once gave a radio address back in 1934. Nowadays, it serves as a store and snack bar. Want to explore the area by boat? The Glacier Park Boat Company offers a delightful 45-minute tour of Two Medicine Lake. If hiking is more your thing, you’ll be pleased to know that there are 14 trails to choose from. You can opt for a shorter hike like Running Eagle Falls, which is just under a mile round-trip, or challenge yourself with the Pitamakan Pass, a roughly 15-mile round-trip adventure. And if you’re up for camping under the stars, there’s a front country campground available, along with several backcountry sites scattered along the trails.

A journey to Two Medicine has delighted past travelers. They were pleasantly surprised by the peacefulness of the area, especially the lake, which was not as crowded as other parts of the park. If you enjoy observing wildlife, you’re in for a treat. Previous visitors, whether they were visiting during the day or camping overnight, were amazed by the abundance of animals they encountered, such as mountain goats and moose.
