Description

Make memories in Glacier National Park at your own pace with a self-guided e-bike rental and shuttle to Going-to-the-Sun Road. This adventure combines the ease and convenience of e-biking with the park’s stunning landscapes. Pedal through glacier-carved valleys, past sparkling rivers, and venture to high alpine views, all while soaking in the iconic scenery on your own terms.

Beginning in Columbia Falls, you'll be provided with an Aventon Pace performance e-bike, making breathtaking views accessible to riders of various fitness levels, from first-time adventurers to seasoned cyclists. Enjoy the freedom of a self-guided ride, allowing you to set your own pace and itinerary without the struggle of uphill climbs.

This experience is perfect for couples, solo travelers, and groups who wish to enjoy Glacier independently while still having the camaraderie of a small group. In the early season, shuttles drop off at the Lake McDonald Lodge, and once accessible, the drop-off point will move to the Avalanche Lake Trailhead.

Your rental includes all essential gear—e-bike and helmet—along with transportation logistics, so you can focus entirely on the breathtaking views and potential wildlife sightings.

Along your route, take advantage of numerous photo opportunities and the chance to spot wildlife like mountain goats, bighorn sheep, or bears. Tailor your adventure to suit your interests and energy level, making the most of your time in Glacier National Park.
