Embark on a beautiful 3.6-mile roundtrip hike through an Alaska State Park into the Tongass National Forest, accompanied by a small group of no more than 7 participants!

Stroll through a captivating old-growth rainforest showcasing stunning specimens of Sitka spruce and western red cedar outlining the trail.
Except for a few steps at the hike’s onset, the trail proceeds to flatten and meanders alongside the river basin, beneath a range. One mile into the hike, a stone bench by a tranquil curve in the river marks our spot for a pause to savor the camaraderie and the stillness around us.
