Glacier Announces 2022 Visitation Data
News and Adventure from Glacier National Park
Glacier National Park continues to be in the top 10 most visited National Parks in 2022, hosting 2,908,458 recreation visits for the year.
Recreational visits were down 5.6% from 2021, due mostly to a drop in visitation in the months of January, March, April, October, November, and December. Monthly records were set for February and September. Despite these monthly shifts in visitation, Glacier has consistently hosted around 3 million visitors each year for the last 5 years, aside from 2020 due to pandemic related closures.
The list below shows the annual trend for recreation visits over the last several years.
2022- 2,908,458
2021- 3,081,656
2020- 1,698,864 (Park closed March 24 to June 8, east side of the park remained closed)
2019- 3,049,839
2018- 2,965,309
2017- 3,305,512 (Highest on record)
While Glacier remains one of the most visited parks in the nation, park officials confirm the past two years of the vehicle reservation pilot program have successfully spread visitation throughout the day during peak hours on Going-to-the-Sun Road resulting in fewer closures, better traffic management, and a more enjoyable park experience during peak season.
More information about park visitation, including how we calculate these numbers, is available on the NPS Stats website.
