The Granite Park Chalet was built in Glacier National Park in 1914 and 1915 by the Great Northern Railway to provide back country accommodations inside Glacier National Park. Granite Park Chalet was the last of the Chalet's built in Glacier National Park by the Great Northern Railway. Granite Park Chalet is one of only two remaining to this day and still provides a restful place for weary adventurers inside Glacier National Park.
When hiking in Glacier National Park you should always carry water, a lot of water. When we started our hike it was a cool 50-55 degrees outside and when we finished it was 85 degrees. During the hike to the Granite Park Chalet you will have amazing views of Heavens Peak which is a massive 8,987 feet high and is the most prevalent feature in this area of the park.
As you continue your journey to the Granite Park Chalet you will come to a healthy pine forest with beautiful trees. Be sure to have trees the mosquitoes were thick in this area.
After braving the mosquitoes you will begin to come to a more open area offering wonderful views of the Garden Wall and Swiftcurrent Mountain inside Glacier National Park.
Once you arrive at Granite Park Chalet you will be greeted by a beautiful stone structure which offers amazing views of Glacier National Park. We sat on a bench facing Heavens Peak for an hour as we enjoyed our lunch as we gazed in awe. After lunch and a nice rest we headed back down the hill taking the memories that will last a lifetime with us.
On our way down the trail we came across a supply team of mules being lead by a wrangler heading up the trail. It is amazing, even today the Granite Park Chalet is supplied by a team of mules much like it would have been over 100 years ago when it was built.
Glacier National Park and the Granite Park Chalet certainly was worth the hike. One of these days I will return to spend the night under the stars.
