Tour overview:
In the morning, travel by water taxi from Homer across Kachemak Bay to Glacier Spit in Kachemak Bay State Park. Join your Alaska guide for a hike to Grewingk Glacier Lake. Your guide will identify and allow you to taste edible vegetation along the way, point out the stages of reforestation along the glacial moraine, and provide you with a wealth of information you would not obtain walking this Kenai Peninsula trail on your own. The trail crosses flat terrain through stands of cottonwoods and spruce and across the dry outwash plain of the Grewingk Glacier. The trail ends at the broad, open beaches of Grewingk Glacier Lake. This trail offers superb views of the glacier and its surrounding peaks. Icebergs floating in the lake present opportunities for great photos.

*There are approximately 4 to 5 miles of uneven ground with several steep spots.

Dates & Rates

We highly recommend visiting the Anchorage Museum. Weather was great, similar to our Arizona winter. Our group was small so we traveled in a van. Our driver accommodated special requests and taxied us to local restaurants. Just as promised: 5 star scenery with 3 star accommodations.
