I could write ten blog posts about my adventures at Glacier National Park. My first time in the park was over twenty years ago. Those few days of hiking and exploring were the spark for much of the traveling that has come since. Just when I thought I could not be more impressed by Glacier, I stumbled into Two Medicine.
Two Medicine is found on the east side of the park and on the shore of Two Medicine Lake. We arrived via Highway 2 from West Glacier on our way out of park. Once there, we found a campground, camp store, ice cream, hikes, picnic areas, boat rentals, and views for miles!
5 Ways to Enjoy Two Medicine, Glacier National Park.
1. Browse the Two Medicine Store.
Are you hungry? Do you need hiking or camping supplies? Are you just looking for a nice cup of coffee? If you answered “yes” to any of these questions, drop into the store. In addition to having everything you need and then some, enjoy its history and scenery.
2. Have a picnic.
Get your lunch to go and head out to the lake. Skip stones and listen to the waves as you eat.
3. Take a boat ride.
We didn’t have a chance to enjoy this first hand but we heard good reviews by people at the park. The tours were full so we will make a note to reserve a seat next time.
4. Enjoy a hike.
Hikes are easy to come and offer great rewards. Waterfalls as accessible in as little as .3 miles. Full or half day hikes and multi-day backpacking trip options are available as well.
5. Stop by the ranger’s station. Get your National Park Passport stamp!

You had me at skipping stones! And then you backed it up with ice cream! What more could you want when tripping around. That lake looks amazing and I’m sure the hikes would offer up some pretty spectacular views and scenery.

I really love the National Parks of the US, they are really national treasures. I have just visited one of them, Yellowstone, and it was an amazing experience. I have read about the wonders of the Glacier National Park and can understand why you can write 10 posts about it. I did not know about the two Medicine lake, it looks so beautiful and a great place for a family picnic in the lap of nature. Very nice hiking trail too.
