This national park features more than a million acres of spectacular scenery, hundreds of miles of trails, a rich and diverse cultural history, and diverse ecosystems that support a large variety of flora, fauna, recreation, and educational opportunities. Dogs are allowed for no additional fee; they may not be left unattended; must be kept on no more than a 6 foot leash, and cleaned up after promptly. Dogs are allowed in campgrounds, developed areas, and on main roads when they are not closed off; they are not allowed in the back country, on any of the regular trails, or on lake shores. There is one 2-mile bike trail that allows dogs spanning from W. Glacier (end of main road in town) to Apgar (on Apgar Loop - there is signage on both sides). There are more than 1000 campsites throughout the 13 campgrounds available here; most are 1st come 1st served, but reservations can be taken for Fish Creek and St Mary campgrounds. Campgrounds may offer some or all of the following: picnic tables, potable water, fire rings, ranger-led activities, a camp store, flush or vault toilets, and dump stations. The camping and tent areas also allow dogs. There is a dog walk area at the campground. There are no electric or water hookups at the campgrounds.
