Hi Leah,

Sorry for the delayed response, but hopefully answering now will get this fresh in your mind for your Glacier vacation.

The easiest waterfalls to hike to in Glacier National Park are:

St. Mary's Falls
Running Eagle Falls
Dawn Mist (a little harder, but well worth it)
Florence Falls (a must in early season)
Bird Women Falls (easy to view from Going to the Sun Road)

In terms of easiest day hikes in Glacier National Park, some of my favorite include:

Avalanche Lake/Trail of the Cedars
Hidden Lake
St. Mary's Falls
Gunsight Lake (longer and more difficult, but well worth it)
Iceberg Lake (also more difficult but breathtaking)

Of course, dozens of other options exist, but those would be my personal recommendations.

If you'd like a more detailed, personalized itinerary, I offer customized Glacier National Park itineraries for $34.95, as well as a very detailed, easy day hike & wildlife itinerary for $9.95

Hope that helps!

Best,

Perry
