5 REASONS TO TAKE THE TRAIN TO THE NATIONAL PARKS Whether you are looking to have a simple national park experience, a short weekend getaway, or seeking to immerse yourself in all of nature’s glory, traveling to our national parks by train offers a unique and relaxing adventure for anyone who is looking to add another check to their bucket list. If you’re still looking for more reasons to take the train to these treasured gems, contact us today for more information and to create the perfect national park train vacation for yourself!

1. The Journey is Part of the Experience When you travel on an Amtrak train, it’s so much more than just getting to your destination as quickly as possible. From the moment you step onboard the train and make your way to your seat or room accommodations, you’ll feel the difference. There’s actually time to relax, have a meal, and reconnect with family, friends, and fellow passengers.

2. Direct Access to U.S. National Parks Because of the long-standing relationship between the train and the national parks, many of Amtrak’s most famous routes transport passengers close to the top parks. In the case of Glacier National Park, the train station is only a few steps away from the park’s entrance, making it one of the easiest parks to get to by train. While hotel accommodations inside or adjacent to the parks can be hard to come by (as they sell out fast in season), Amtrak Vacations can help travelers with securing these coveted rooms.

3. The Views are Included Enjoy scenes of the country not accessible by any other means of transportation while you travel in comfort. As you get closer to the national parks, take in iconic scenes of the area, from the sweeping pine forests of Glacier National Park to the red rock structures of the Grand Canyon. Your personal scenic experience is right outside your window on the train.

4. See Multiple Parks in one Trip With Amtrak Vacations, it’s easy to take the national park train vacation of your dreams - whether it’s spending more time at just one or two parks, or visiting up to 12 national parks in a single vacation! Check out the popular itineraries included for examples of exciting multi-park train vacations.

5. Create your own National Parks Itinerary The options for visiting national parks by train are endless. With the help of our friendly Rail Vacation Specialists, you can create an itinerary that includes the park or parks you want to visit and only the tours, activities, and accommodations that work best for you and your travel companions.

West Glacier Station is just steps away from the park’s entrance, and all the stunning glaciers, waterfalls and mountains the area is known for. The impressive, timbered Glacier Park Lodge sits to the left of the station and is a wonderful option for overnight stays at the park. Constructed from trees estimated to be over 600 years old, the lodge was built by the Great Northern Railway to promote rail travel and to attract tourists to this beautiful area. Nowadays, the park is one of the most popular stops in the entire Amtrak system.
