Timed Entry Vehicle Reservations open February 13

Glacier National Park reminds visitors that 120-day advance timed entry vehicle reservations become available on Recreation.gov starting February 13, 2025, at 8 am Mountain Time. 

This is a correction from a previous announcement that stated reservations would be released on February 12. The correct date, February 13, is exactly 120 days prior to June 13, the first day timed entry vehicle reservations are required.

A timed entry vehicle reservation is required from June 13 to September 28, 2025, for the West Side of Going-to-the-Sun Road and the North Fork. Reservations can only be purchased on Recreation.gov.

The entry time blocks for Going-to-the-Sun Road and the North Fork will be in two-hour increments; 7 am to 9 am, 9 am to 11 am, 11 am to 1 pm, and 1 pm to 3 pm.

Visitors can enter reservation areas at any time during the time block they have reserved and can remain in the park for as long as they like on the day of their reservation. Visitors who miss their reserved time block can enter after 3 pm.

Timed entry vehicle reservations will be available online through two booking windows. Starting Feb 13, at 8 am Mountain Time, a portion of reservations will open daily on a rolling basis 120 days, approximately four months, in advance. The 120-day advance booking window is ideal for people who need to plan their park visit in advance to coordinate with other plans or services in the area. A second booking window, for next-day entry, will be available starting June 12, 2025, at 7 pm. Next-day booking is a good option for people who are already in the local area or are more spontaneous with their plans.

Each of the specified areas of the park requires a separate reservation, which can be made at Recreation.gov or the Recreation.gov mobile app. Visitors must create an account before booking and are encouraged to do so prior to the day reservations open. The cost associated with booking a reservation is a $2 Recreation.gov processing fee.
