If you're yearning for an Alaskan adventure that's both exhilarating and immersive, let me introduce you to Exit Glacier Guides, located at 1013 3rd Ave, Seward, AK 99664. These folks have been leading the charge in glacier exploration for nearly two decades, offering a range of tours that cater to both the thrill-seekers and those looking to soak in the serene beauty of Alaska's icy landscapes. Picture this: You're trekking through the rugged terrain of Kenai Fjords National Park, the crisp Alaskan air filling your lungs as you approach the majestic Exit Glacier. With Exit Glacier Guides, this isn't just a daydream—it's your reality.
They offer a variety of tours, from heart-pumping ice climbing adventures to more leisurely ice hikes. Never tried ice climbing before? No problem! Their experienced guides provide all the instruction and gear you need to safely ascend the glacier's icy walls. With a guide-to-client ratio of 1:3, you'll receive personalized attention to boost your confidence on the ice.
For those who prefer to keep their feet (mostly) on the ground, ice hiking tours are a perfect fit. These 7- to 8-hour excursions take you on a journey through the stunning landscapes surrounding Exit Glacier. You'll hike approximately 1.6 miles, gaining about 1,400 feet in elevation, before stepping onto the glacier itself. Once there, you'll spend 1.5 to 2 hours exploring the glacier's surface, marveling at deep crevasses, serene blue canyons, and otherworldly ice formations. It's a workout, sure, but the payoff is an unforgettable experience that few get to have.
Safety is a top priority for Exit Glacier Guides. Each guide undergoes extensive training, including Wilderness First Responder certification and in-depth glacier travel experience. This rigorous preparation ensures that your adventure is not only thrilling but also safe. Plus, their commitment to small group sizes means you'll have a more intimate and personalized experience on the ice.
Beyond the glacier itself, the surrounding area offers a treasure trove of natural beauty. The nearby Harding Icefield Trail provides a challenging hike with panoramic views that will leave you in awe. Wildlife enthusiasts will be delighted by the chance to spot black bears, moose, and marmots along the way. The landscape around Exit Glacier is a living testament to the power of nature, showcasing how glaciers shape and transform the environment over time.
Seward itself is a charming coastal town brimming with Alaskan character. After a day of glacier exploration, take a stroll through the historic downtown area, indulge in some fresh seafood, or visit the Alaska SeaLife Center to get up close with marine life. Seward serves as the perfect base camp for your Alaskan adventure, offering a warm and welcoming atmosphere to all who visit.
