Fun Facts

Running Eagle Falls is named after a Blackfeet woman warrior who was known for her bravery and leadership, a rarity in Native American history.

During high water, the falls appear as a single cascade, but in lower water, a second waterfall emerges from a cave underneath the main fall.

This picturesque waterfall is nestled within the Two Medicine area of Glacier National Park, offering visitors a serene natural experience.

The falls are a sacred site for the Blackfeet people, who have a rich history and cultural connection to the area.

The trail to the falls is approximately 0.6 miles round trip, making it a family-friendly excursion.

The falls are formed by the Two Medicine River as it flows over a limestone cliff, creating a stunning natural spectacle.

The falls are sometimes referred to as Trick Falls due to their unique dual waterfall feature.
