Our take

Twin Falls is reached via a 7-mile round-trip moderate hike in Glacier National Park’s Two Medicine area. A boat shuttle across Two Medicine Lake is available for an additional fee, shortening the hike significantly.

Glacier National Park entrance fees apply ($35 for a seven-day vehicle pass). As of this review, the North Shore Trailhead at Two Medicine Campground is closed for construction. The South Shore route or boat shuttle are the current alternatives for reaching Twin Falls. This situation may change as construction concludes, so confirm current access options with the National Park Service before planning your visit.

Dogs are not permitted on park trails. Check NPS updates for current trailhead status and availability of alternative routes.
