Lake McDonald
Ten miles long and nearly 500 feet deep (152.4 m), Lake McDonald, the largest lake in the park, is a direct result of glacial carving. High peaks surrounding the lake all show evidence of the power of glaciers to carve even the hardest of rock. The powerful glaciers that carved the broad "u-shaped" valley that Lake McDonald sits in also carved smaller hanging valleys with wonderful waterfalls that are accessible by numerous hiking trails.

McDonald Falls & John's Lake Trail
McDonald Falls sits just north of Lake McDonald in the park’s southwest region. The falls receives water from McDonald Creek and feeds Lake McDonald, the park’s largest lake. To visit McDonald Falls, travel along Going-to-the-Sun Road until you reach the north shore of Lake McDonald, following signs for the Lake McDonald Ranger Station. Turn west off of Going-to-the-Sun Road. The short trail to the falls begins from the Lake McDonald Ranger Station parking lot.
