WEST GLACIER, Mont. [October 29, 2024] – Glacier National Park and Glacier National Park Conservancy this week announced a new level two electric vehicle charger available for public use in the Apgar Visitor Center parking lot. The new charger was installed and ready for use in late September 2024.

Due to generous Glacier National Park Conservancy donors, the charging station is free to use but limited to two hours of charging time when in heavy demand.  

The Apgar location is the second electric vehicle charging site added by the park within park boundaries. The first park vehicle charger, located at the St. Mary Visitor Center, was installed in July 2023. In 2016, as the contracted concessioner for Glacier National Park lodging, Xanterra installed and continues to operate a charger at Lake McDonald Lodge. Locations of these and other EV chargers in the vicinity of the park can be found on any EV charging station map website (ex. Plugshare). 

Glacier National Park is committed to promoting and implementing environmentally sustainable operations and practices by making sustainable travel more accessible. Through the installation of electric vehicle chargers, Glacier National Park is supporting the service-wide goal of reducing carbon emissions to net zero by 2050 as outlined in the NPS Climate Change Response Strategy.
