6Glacier National Park, Montana
This park is praised both for its beauty and its remoteness. It spans an area of more than one million acres and only one road crosses it. Most of the park is accessible only on foot.
More importantly, this park offers a number of different family-friendly activities. Your younger kids will be fascinated by peaceful Lake McDonald. The multi-colored rocks under the clear glacial water here sparkle.
You can even rent stand-up paddleboards or kayaks and get a closer look. If you prefer dry land, you can all hike the easily accessible Trail of the Cedars. While veteran visitors say it is perfect for the entire family, it is important to note that the specific extension to Avalanche Lake isn’t ADA accessible as this goes to press. The best time to hike this trail is after 4:00 p.m. when the visiting crowds begin to thin out.
