Montana's Best Riverside Dining Rafting Trips

The wild and scenic Middle Fork of the Flathead River is one of the last great, wild and free flowing rivers of the West. The Middle Fork of the Flathead River forms the southern border of the spectacular Glacier National Park. Meals with Great Northern Resort are a special treat when you’re out on a river rafting adventure. Your river rafting guide/chef will prepare an amazing meal with food and supplies that travel down river with you.

All our food is originally prepared fresh at the resort by our on-site chef and includes an appetizer, delicious salads and dessert to follow. Therefore you'll enjoy a hearty rafting riverside meal to complete your rafting experience on the river bordering Glacier National Park. Both our Scenic rafting trips and white water rafting trips offer the very similar meals cooked fresh on the river during your trip. Lunch and Dinner choices include: Steak, chicken, beef burger or vegetarian.

Great Northern’s Montana full day rafting trips and dinner rafting trips run June through early September on the Middle Fork of the Flathead River.

Cherish your trip to Montana and your Glacier Park rafting trip forever with a photo package.
