Hear the guide
This is the real narration from Parkwolf’s Glacier tour. It starts on its own as you approach each stop, so you never tap or read while driving.
“Wild Goose Island Overlook is coming up, with one of the classic views across St. Mary Lake. The island rises only about fourteen feet above the water; the mountains behind it are what make the scene feel so big.”
Real stops, real narration
Three real lines from the narration, each with the app’s tip for that stop, at three of the most-loved stops in Glacier.
“Jackson Glacier Overlook is coming up, with a view of glacier ice without a hike.”
Heads up The ice is distant and can disappear in cloud.
“You’re approaching Logan Pass, the highest point on Going-to-the-Sun Road. Stop for the alpine meadows and mountain views even if you’re not planning a long hike.”
Heads up Parking fills extremely early during the operating season.
“The Loop is coming up, the only switchback on the west side of Going-to-the-Sun Road. Stop for the view toward Heavens Peak if you can find a parking space.”
Heads up Limited parking can make stopping difficult.

From the App Store
“This is the best Park App I’ve used. I live 50 minutes from Yellowstone and I tell my visitors this is a must have. I even have an AirBnB and it’s part of my recommendation. Just did the talking tour of Glacier and it was great.”
“The map was helpful and the audio was just enough without being too much. I used it at Yellowstone and I’ll use it at Glacier when I get there.”
“As a National Park enthusiast, this app is fantastic! I’ve visited 39 parks so far and I’ll always use this app. The tour guide and offline map functions are incredibly helpful. Just used it at Glacier!”
“We drove Yellowstone and Glacier and the information from this app added tremendously to the experience. We enjoyed the information on the area but also the preview of different trails and scenic points.”
