Going-to-the-Sun Road Reopens the Alpine Sections

Going-to-the-Sun Road, a popular scenic route in Montana’s Glacier National Park, has reopened after a temporary closure. Park officials had made the decision to shut the road on June 20, 2025, due to heavy rain and snowfall. The adverse weather conditions had made the area prone to mudslides and icy conditions, prompting the precautionary measure.

The road, known for its breathtaking views of the park’s alpine sections, was closed at 8 pm on the said date. The closure was a proactive step by park officials to ensure the safety of visitors and protect the natural resources of the park. The decision was made in response to the significant rainfall and snowfall that the area received, which increased the risk of hazardous conditions.

The reopening of Going-to-the-Sun Road is good news for park visitors, who can now once again enjoy the stunning vistas and unique wildlife that the route offers. The road’s closure had been necessary to mitigate the risks posed by the weather, but with conditions now improved, the park is ready to welcome visitors back to this beloved section of Glacier National Park.
