Jewel Basin Trail Head, Strawberry Lake Trail Head , and Peter's Ridge Forest Service Rd, are all minutes away.
My favorite place to hike with my pup. This area doesn’t see the pressure of Glacier Park, and dogs are allowed on the entire trail system. Oodles of lakes and ridge top hiking, with high alpine lakes and streams dotted along the way. Views galore, and mountain goats will greet you on a regular basis, especially on the Mount Aeneus and Picnic Lakes trails. A must do if you want to hike with your fur kiddos. This is big grizzly country, so always hike with bear spray!

Get driving directions to Camp Misery trailhead off Jewel Basin Road and spend the day in scenery that just about equals Glacier National Park! For me, I prefer the Jewel for the less traveled aspect - you can be hiking and be ALONE on the trail for long periods of time! Mt. Aeneas is about a 6 mile round trip not for the faint of heart (or lungs), with an option to dump off the top down to Picnic Lakes and return via that loop. An easier 6 miles would be to Birch Lake for fishing and swimming. Not as much elevation gain and a great way to blow the day! Bears are there - I've not ever seen one on all my hikes in that area. You will see mountain goats year 'round on Aeneas and in early summer at Birch Lake. Google a map of Jewel Basin, look for Camp Misery trailhead. The upper road and parking area are often CLOSED due to snow until late May, but you could always snowshoe!
