" Visitors rate the alpine setting and slotted hikes as essential, but parking and crowding are persistent challenges. Water shortages can lead to early restroom closures; plan ahead."

Beautiful visitor center that has stunning views. Connects to hidden lake overlook hike as well as high line trail. Bathrooms are not the cleanest (as with most national parks) and parking is a battle! If you’re coming in the morning- come as early as you can- we waited 1+hour at 7am but it was worth it. :)

The Logan pass is a very popular place as it is a starting point for many beautiful trails in Glacier. We visited this place twice on our trip in July2025. One day we visited on a Friday around 7.00 PM and the parking was easy as most of the people were leaving at that time. We did the Hidden Pass Overlook trail and it was a great trail and by time we returned it was 9.00 PM and still there was abundant Sunlight which was a plus point.The next day we arrived around 9.00 AM , we were hoping to be there by 8.00 AM given the difficulty of parking. However we got lucky and took one round, and we were able to acquire a spot. I would say be patient and make few rounds before you can find a place as at that point people who came in early might be leaving already. Its all about patience and luck. We did the highline trail from here and again this trail was one of the gorgeous trail I have ever been to, specially the wild flowers took the whole trail to next level.Logan pass is well known for spotting Mountain goats , we were fortunate enough to see a whole family of goats.Overall Logan Pass is a great place to be let it be for hiking some amazing trails , or to watch mountain goats or to be at the highest elevation point in Glacier.

We loved our visit here! Be forewarned, the parking lot fills up quickly! We went on a Saturday morning and couldn't get a parking spot after driving around the lot 6 times. So we left and drove to St. Mary's and went back to try it again and the parking lot was closed. Came back the next day at 6:15am and there was maybe 10 parking spots available. So go early!!! The views are majestic! You'll probably see mountain goats, marmots, tons of ground squirrels, and maybe even a grizzly or two. The visitor center is very informative but can get crowded fast.
