GETTING THERE
Nearest Airports
Approximate planning ranges; allow extra time for traffic and winter conditions.
Glacier Park International Airport is roughly a 30-minute drive from the ski resort in good conditions. Arrange the airport leg separately from the free S.N.O.W. Bus, which connects downtown Whitefish and the mountain during the operating season. Amtrak’s Empire Builder stops at the downtown depot. If driving to the slopes, take Big Mountain Road and allow more time in winter weather.
