About Spruce Meadow

The main experience is the change from tall, close-growing conifers to an open meadow with views towards the mountain. Boardwalks keep the visit within the managed forest landscape. This is a separate, lower mountain outing from Glacier Park; choose the cableway that matches the landscape you want to see and leave time to return through the transport system.

What to look for

  • Tall spruce forest surrounds the open meadow.
  • The managed boardwalk provides changing views of the forest edge and mountain.
