Our Glacier adventure begins in the charming Apgar Village, the park’s western gateway nestled at the foot of Lake McDonald. This picturesque village offers a quintessential national park atmosphere with its historic buildings, quaint shops, and stunning views across the crystal-clear waters of the lake towards the towering mountains beyond. Take some time to soak in the ambiance, perhaps browse the local crafts, or simply admire the iconic scenery. Apgar provides the perfect introduction to the grandeur that awaits us within Glacier National Park. It’s a place where the beauty of the lake meets the majesty of the mountains.
