Swiftcurrent Lake is located in the Glacier Area of ​​Many Glacier National Park, in the state of Montana AS. The Many Glacier Hotel, the largest hotel in the park, is along the eastern shore of the lake. Many hiking trails coming from the area and beautiful boat tours provide access to the lake for visitors.
Swiftcurrent Lake is located at 4,878 feet (1,487 m) above sea level. Nearby lakes include the much larger Sherburne Lake to the east and Josephine Lake to the southwest. The mountains to the west of the lake rise 3,000 feet (910 m) above the lake. The rapidly disappearing Grinnell glacier is one of several glaciers and snow fields that provide water for the river that replenishes the lake. Mount Gould, Grinnell Point and Mount Wilbur is the largest mountain to the west of the lake.
