    Route Description for Loneman Lookout Trail

    The Loneman Lookout Trail is an amazing hike through the remote parts of Glacier National Park and provides its hikers with a challenge. This hike can be dangerous in early summer after the spring runoff as water levels can be high, so proceed with caution and possibly plan your hike for late summer. This long day hike has you ascending through the winding trails, where you will take in beautiful views of Harrison Lake, Mount Jackson and Walton Mountain. After you reach the peak, head back the way you can as this is an out and back trail.
