For one reason or another, sometimes only a (very) short hike will do. Luckily, Montana has a trail for every need and skill level, including a few that are short and sweet. Running Eagle Falls Trail is one that any able-bodied Montanan can (and should) do.

Running Eagle Falls Trail is located in Glacier National Park near East Glacier Park.
