Whitefish Winter Carnival
Located in the breathtaking Northern Rockies and adjacent to the peaks of Glacier National Park and Whitefish Mountain Resort, the town of Whitefish is home to some of the world's most beautiful mountains and spectacular, unspoiled nature, including Whitefish Lake and scenic rivers. The location of the valley keeps it safe from extreme climate changes encountered in other portions of Montana, making it ideal for year-round recreation.
With its covered sidewalk main street leading to the cultural arts center, historic depot museum and public library, this charming small town with big hospitality offers visitors a change from the fast-paced, hustle and bustle of urban life. Central Avenue is filled with a variety of restaurants that have world-class wine selections and use locally-sourced food, plus the town offers abundant shopping, art galleries and night life. Lodging choices range from full-service hotels and resorts, to charming inns, rustic lodges and cabins.
Whitefish attractions include Whitefish Theatre Company and Alpine Theatre Project , Whitefish Lake Golf Club; a 36-hole golf course with spectacular views of both mountains and lakes, the new Whitefish Trail and the Great Northern Brewing Company; complete with a public tasting room. In the winter enjoy a superb cross-country skiing facility right in town. The Glacier Nordic Center features 12 kilometers of impeccably machine-groomed trails for both skating and classic techniques. The trails wind over rolling hills with great views of surrounding mountains and lakes. Four kilometers are lighted for night skiing.
