Highline Trail to The Loop(11.6 miles, 830 foot gain, 3,026 foot loss)---This hike begins at Logan Pass on GTTS Road and ends at The Loop on GTTS Road, so it IS a thru-hike. You would need to get a free hiking shuttle back up to the car at Logan Pass or get a ride from someone. The views along this trail are nothing less the incredible. Awesome views along the entire route. You reach Granite Park Chalet at 7.6 miles, where you can take a rest and get a bite to eat or something to drink. From there down to The Loop, it is very steep and passes through a burn area dotted with beautiful fireweed. From Granite Park Chalet you can take a 5 mile roundtrip side hike to Swiftcurrent Lookout for sweeping 360 views or a 2 mile roundtrip side hike to Swiftcurrent Pass for incredible views down to the Many Glacier Valley, including Bullhead and Red Rock Lakes. A spur trail off the Highline Trail east of Granite Park Chalet leads steeply 0.8 miles to Grinnell Glacier Overlook, where you can look straight down on beautiful Grinnell Glacier.
