hiker/biker camping?

Question

I know hiker/biker campground reservations are released 4 days ahead of time. When those spots are released, can you book multiple nights? Or do you need to book night by night?

Answer

Hiker/biker campgrounds in Glacier National Park are designed specifically for travelers on foot or bike, and reservations for these sites indeed open only 4 days in advance. These campgrounds tend to be small and very popular, so planning ahead—even just a few days—is important.

Regarding booking multiple nights:

Yes, it is possible to reserve multiple consecutive nights at hiker/biker campgrounds, as long as the nights you want are available when reservations open.
However, availability can be extremely limited, especially during peak season. Many campers find that some nights book up immediately when the 4-day window opens, so you may need to check and book night by night if the consecutive nights you want are not all open at once.
It’s recommended to have a flexible plan. If your desired site is only available for one night, you may need to stay at a different hiker/biker site for the following nights or adjust your route.

Tips for securing hiker/biker sites:

Set a reminder for the exact time reservations open—these often fill within minutes.
Have alternative sites and dates ready in case your first choice is taken.
Consider combining hiker/biker sites with standard campgrounds if you’re traveling with a mix of hiking/biking days and driving days.

In summary, multiple-night reservations are allowed if available, but flexibility is key because high demand often requires booking night by night.
