Great Northern Flats Campground

Great Northern Flats Campground offers free dispersed camping with 3 designated RV sites and additional tent camping areas directly on the North Fork Flathead River, featuring a vault toilet and fire pits.

Access is via a rough 3-4 mile gravel road with potholes that is passable for most vehicles but can be dusty and bumpy; the site serves as a popular boat launch for rafters and kayakers, so expect daytime traffic.

The location provides convenient access to Glacier National Park's west entrance and is ideal for fishing, swimming, and stargazing, though sites fill quickly during peak season and the area can get crowded during the day.
