The North Fork of the Flathead River is one of Glacier National Park’s most scenic and remote waterways. Flowing along the park’s western boundary, this glacially-fed river is known for its striking turquoise color, created by rock flour from melting glaciers. The river winds through a rugged landscape of forested valleys, open meadows, and towering peaks, offering incredible views of the Livingston Range. It's a designated Wild and Scenic River, meaning it remains largely untouched and undeveloped. Wildlife sightings are common—keep an eye out for eagles, moose, and even the occasional bear. The area is peaceful and quiet, with few crowds, making it a perfect place to enjoy a picnic, skip rocks, or simply relax by the water. Whether you're biking, hiking, or paddling nearby, the North Fork delivers a true wilderness experience just beyond the well-traveled areas of the park.
