Embark on a peaceful lakeside camping retreat in the Rocky Mountains on the way to Hungry Horse.
Set in northwest Montana amid the majestic subranges of the Rocky Mountains, the surrounding area around Hungry Horse offers camping in dense coniferous forests or next to alpine lakes. North of town, Glacier National Park is full of backcountry camping with minimal facilities except the landscapes. Revel in the mountain views while hiking the Great Glacier Trail or the very steep Hermit Trail. To the south, Flathead National Forest has numerous campgrounds along the west and east sides of Hungry Horse Reservoir. The vast body of water is created by the Hungry Horse Dam and fed by the South Fork of Flathead River. Amenities at on-site campsites vary and may include drinking water, picnic tables, boat launches, dump stations, and restrooms with vault toilets. Cabin rentals with stoves and comfortable beds are available too. Alternatively, private RV parks near Whitefish, Martin City, and Kalispell give campers more comfortable amenities like full hookups, free wifi, on-site laundry facilities, hot showers, and convenient access to shopping and restaurants.
