Travel

Getting to Paddle Ridge We’re tying the knot at Paddle Ridge, just outside the West Entrance of Glacier National Park. Here’s how to get there without stress:

Flight

Glacier Park International (FCA) • Kalispell, MT

Flying In Closest Airport — Glacier Park International (FCA) • Kalispell, MT This is the winner! Only about 30 minutes (23 miles) from Paddle Ridge. Easy flights in, rental cars right at the airport.

Flight

Missoula (MSO) • Missoula, MT

Alternate Airport — Missoula (MSO) • Missoula, MT Roughly 2.5–3 hours (138 miles) away. The upside? More flight options and a gorgeous drive along Flathead Lake. This is where Adam and I live! Other Options     •    Great Falls (GTF): ~3.5–4 hours away. Handy if you’re exploring the eastern side of the park.     •    Spokane (GEG): ~6 hours away. Sometimes cheaper fares, but definitely a road-trip vibe.
