The One-Of-A-Kind Glass Kayaking Tour in Montana That’s the Perfect Summer Adventure

This is a unique way to explore nature on the water.

The summer season seems to fly by quickly in Montana, but we locals know how to make the best of those fleeting, warm nights before they give way to colder temperatures. And while perhaps you've gone kayaking before, I'm willing to bet there's a kayaking experience that is unlike any you've ever had. Glass kayaking is the ultimate summer adventure in Montana and you'll want to add this experience to your bucket list.

Rocky Mountain Glass Kayak Company, based out of Kalispell, offers an exciting and unique kayaking experience that you won't find anywhere else in the Treasure State. Imagine floating peacefully across crystal clear waters as you take in the beautiful mountain scenery that surrounds you. But let's take it one step further: you're in a see-through kayak that allows you to see into the water below you!

And the experience gets even better at night when the kayaks are illuminated in vibrant colored LED lights! Rocky Mountain Glass Kayak Company offers several kayak tour options, including sunset tours on LED-lit kayaks at either Peterson Lake or along the Whitefish River and into Whitefish Lake. Each nighttime tour option varies with its group size, surroundings, difficulty, and distance you’ll travel. However, each one will have you fully immersed in nature.

You can ride tandem with a friend or loved one on a sunset LED kayak tour as you float along with your guide. And if you'd prefer a daytime ride, book a Somers Bay Clear Glass Kayak Tour. For two hours, you’ll get to enjoy the beauty of Flathead Lake from a new perspective—looking down and into the water. You’ll enjoy incredible water, mountain, and even wildlife views. Flathead Lake is known for its clear, beautiful waters and this unique tour allows you to experience it in a whole new way.

In addition to experiencing one-of-a-kind views, you’ll also learn something new on your glass kayak tour. Your guide can tell you more about the history, wildlife, and natural features that you’ll see as you paddle. This is an activity for any occasion or to simply cross off your summer bucket list.

We strongly recommend booking in advance, as group sizes are limited and spots do sell out. Your ticket includes all kayaking gear, including personal flotation devices. You will want to bring water to drink for your ride, and water shoes are strongly recommended. No boots are allowed, and the maximum weight per kayak is 420 pounds.

Glass kayaking with Rocky Mountain Glass Kayak Tours and Rentals offers a truly unique and invigorating summertime adventure in Montana that is sure to leave an impression. This is a summer activity you'll easily fall in love with—but don't take my word for it, come and experience this wild adventure for yourself!
