Amtrak Empire Builder
For Reservations contact the
Travel Professionals at
Glacier Park, Inc.
Amtrak's Empire Builder takes you on an exciting adventure
through majestic wilderness, following the footsteps of
Lewis and Clark. From Chicago, you'll have magnificent views
of the Mississippi and see the glowing night skyline of
Minneapolis and St. Paul. Awake the next morning as you
cross the vast North Dakota plains and cross over the
spectacular Gassman Coulee Trestle. As you skirt the upper
Missouri, you'll cross into the wide-open spaces of Big Sky
country in Montana. Nature continues her performance in
Glacier National Park, where the panoramic windows of the
Sightseer Lounge are the best seats in the house. From
Spokane, you can continue on to Seattle or pick up the Lewis
and Clark trail again, heading down the mighty Columbia
River to Portland for spectacular views of Mt. Hood and
Beacon Rock. On the Empire Builder, you'll feel like a
pampered explorer.
