The road ends at Glacier Point and a quarter mile long paved walkway leads to one of the most spectacular viewpoints in the park.
The road to Glacier Point is closed from sometime in November through early May or late June. From mid-December through early April the road is plowed only as far as the Badger Pass ski area and Glacier Point can be reached via skis or snowshoes only. Both downhill and cross-country skiing are available at Badger Pass from mid-December through early April.
