Hungry Horse
Location: On Highway 2, 10 miles west of West
Glacier. Population: 900.

Hungry Horse was named after two freight horses
used for logging the rugged wilderness of the Flathead
River’s South Fork area who wandered away from
their sleigh during the severe winter of 1900-01, but
were found a month later and nursed back to health.
The town is a great place for a traveler’s rest break
or to spend the night prior to a full day in Glacier Park.
Roadside stands offer various delicious concoctions
made from native huckleberries.
Completed in 1953, the nearby 564-foot high
Hungry Horse Dam is Montana’s highest, and the
eleventh largest concrete dam in the US. Guided tours
start at the Visitor Center, beginning in mid-June. A
road circling the 34-mile long reservoir provides easy
access to excellent fishing spots, boating recreation,
and many hiking areas in the surrounding spectacular
wilderness area.
