South shores of Many Glacier Lakes

Starting on the shores of Swiftcurrent Lake at the Many Glacier Hotel, the Josephine Lake trail wanders along the south shores of the Many Glacier lakes. After Swiftcurrent Lake, you hike past Josephine and finally Grinnell Lake. You can continue up the ridge past Grinnell Lake and join up with the Piegan Pass trail and view the beautiful Feather Plume Falls. Moose frequent the area as well as bears. I was fortunate enough to see a cow moose as well as a host of birds and wildflowers. These beautiful lakes are surrounded by magnificent peaks and waterfalls. A fairly level hike, it can be enjoyed by pretty much everyone and can be shortened by taking a ferry.
