It’s called the Crown of the Continent. And it’s home to some of the most ruggedly stunning mountains on the planet. Glacier National Park is currently blanketed in snow, perfect conditions for a winter exploration. Kalispell, Montana, is your accessible and affordable home base to Glacier National Park. Snowshoeing or cross-country skiing here is an iconic experience.

Trails cater to all skill levels, and views of spiking, snow-topped peaks will leave you awestruck for days. Afterward, kick back in Kalispell and enjoy Montana-made craft beer and spirits paired with farm-to-table fare and plan your next day. Kalispell leads to limitless outdoor adventures, including downhill skiing at Whitefish Mountain, ranked a Top 10 2017 resort by SKI magazine, and Blacktail Mountain, a true locals’ favorite.

Direct Flight Bonus: You can get to Kalispell by car (road trip!), but there’s also a brand-new United Airlines direct flight from SFO to Kalispell.
