  WEST GLACIER, Mont. [August 27, 2025] – Glacier National Park announces a temporary reroute of the bike path between West Glacier and Apgar. 

Park Headquarters  
The Apgar bike path reroute is planned to begin early September and last approximately two weeks. Visitors are encouraged to check the Current Conditions page on the park’s website. The reroute will temporarily close the section of the bike path that goes through the administrative area of Glacier National Park’s Headquarters. The reroute will require pedestrians to utilize Going-to-the-Sun Road from West Glacier to the bike path intersection just after the West Entrance Station, approximately 0.2 miles. The reroute is necessary to facilitate road rehabilitation and paving on Mather Drive and Grinnell Drive as part of the larger headquarters paving project that began in fall 2024.    

This is the final phase of the headquarters paving project and is planned for completion by mid-September.
