Baring Falls

Waterfall within Glacier National Park.

Reviewed By Shieldsnan - Monument, United States

This was a nice, easy walk thru the woods from Sunrift Gorge parking area. The falls are gorgeous. You could continue the longer hike to St Mary's Falls or walk back uphill to your car at Sunrift Gorge parking.

Running Eagle Falls

Running Eagle Falls is a highlight of a trip to Two Medicine. In the spring water rushes over the upper fall so thick that the lower fall is completely hidden. Later in summer, as flows decrease, the water seems to change course and flow almost exclusively out of the lower fall. It's easy to see why this waterfall used to be named Trick Falls. This area holds great religious significance for local Blackfeet tribal members. The park is in the process of creating a nature trail here to highlight the cultural significance of this unique spot.

Lunch Creek

Reviewed By MaryEllenM27 - Kalispell, United States

This is still one of our favorite spots along the east side of Going to the Sun Road. We made a trip up there during the Covid shutdown in 2020...but that only made it seem more restful and beautiful. We were gifted when a herd of Big Horn Sheep crossed through the creek area. We see that quite often at Lunch Creek but we were able to capture a photo of them this time.

Weeping Wall

Reviewed By MaryEllenM27 - Kalispell, United States

We go up the Going to the Sun early, every year after it opens up... partly to be able to drive under and through the water falling down onto the road at Weeping Wall. There is room enough on the down hill side to hug the wall and get a nice cold shower on a motorbike or a fun, unusual drive-through in your car. Its something that you do not find everywhere. Kids squeal with joy when they go under with the car window open or open enough to get a little hand out to get wet. You could get wet inside if the window is down all the way...have a towel handy for afterwards. Late June and early July is best as the snow melt is what makes the Weeping Wall. Later in the year....people wonder what all the fuss is about because the snow melt from above tapers down to a bare trickle later on. We traveled to this attraction last year in late June of 2019...yet that is not a choice on the date travelled tab...so I hit June 2020 instead. The GTTSR was not open in June 2020.
