Glacier National Park
Glacier National Park is not pet friendly but is a BARK ranger park. There are frequent wildlife sightings and dogs can upset the natives.
National Park Dogs talks about how pet friendly our National Parks, Monuments and other federal lands are or aren’t. A few parks do not allow dogs at all while most parks have different amounts of restrictions.
To provide a quick reference for park pet friendliness, I have devised a paw-rating system. One paw means pets are only allowed on roads or paved areas and not left unattended in vehicles. Two paws mean pets must be within 100 feet of roads and there is one pet friendly trail. A three paw park has two or more pet friendly trails. The most pet friendly parks get a four paw rating, theses parks have few limiting restrictions. When travelling to any National Park, you will need leash and cleaned up after your pet.
Blog posts in National Park Dogs give more details about each park we have traveled to with our Great Danes. I have also included an info-graphic for quick reference and maps to dog friendly trails when available.
Traveling enriches both your life and the life of your Great Dane.
