Additional Information

Our excursions are intimate, suitable for families and offer breathtakingly spectacular vistas. No previous experience with machinery operation is required. We ensure that each operator of a machine receives a personalized safety briefing and offer instruction on how to safely manage your equipment. Our adventures begin directly from our headquarters at Hatcher Pass, where we have parking facilities for all types of vehicles. Our premise is situated down a county-managed dirt route that is approved by all car rental services.

During the trip, we will traverse forsaken gold mines, wade through creek basins and absorb the spectacular sight of distant mountain ranges from across the valley. A highlight includes a demonstration on gold panning, where we reveal the old-fashioned manual methods used by the pioneers of gold excavation.

Toolin' around in the snow - Fun tour! We were in some Polaris Rangers outfitted with tracks, got to tool around in some nice chunky snow (3-4ft) and did a quick dip in a creek! Tour guide (Jayce) was great and provided hot chocolate midway through and took us up to a spot where we could see an active gold mine and some beautiful views of the valley. ATVs were covered (so no need for gloves)

Real Alaskan Adventure - Big mountain views. Awesome off-road trails in mini snowcats. We saw moose. The weather up top was much warmer than in town it was so neat. Guide Dan was super knowledgeable and fun to talk to. The mini tank machines are brand new and have heat and a radio. This was the best tour we took during our visit to Alaska.

An Hospitable Adventure Worth Your While - Booked the UTV tour as a birthday gift to self, which, despite driving from Anchorage through a terrible snowstorm, turned out to be a great choice! Received a warm welcome from all staff members upon arrival. My guide fitted me with the proper safety gear and gave easy directions on how to operate the vehicle in no time. He was also very friendly and knowledgable about the area, which made for a fun trip. I highly recommend this company to anyone looking to do something off-grid or different from the norm. You’ll get to see some of Alaska’s most beautiful country with some of its best people!

We loved our tour - This tour knocked our socks off. We saw a moose on the road the tour office is located. While out on tour we saw a baby bear that crossed the trail. The Polaris Rangers are brand new and well taken care of. We really enjoyed the Bluetooth radio while cruising around.

Amazing Scenery. Outstanding Machines - Touring the Mountains in complete comfort was amazing. It is so nice to take a tour and go out to eat right after because we stayed so clean from the fully enclosed cabs. Great value for the money. Thank you to the amazing staff for going above and beyond.

Explore Hatcher Pass Alaska - My wife and I went on an ATV tour with Randy as our guide yesterday and we had a fantastic time! Randy quickly but thoroughly went through the safety briefing and made sure we were comfortable operating the vehicle. Just a short way from their facility we were off road and having a blast, running through creeks, tearing up and down hills. He is very familiar with the area and shared his knowledge. The gold panning was fun and he found us a rock with gold impregnated in it! The Polaris Rangers are great! Easy to operate, comfortable, and heated! They look new and are very well maintained. If you’re a local or a visitor I highly recommend you check out Hatcher Pass ATV.

ATV's Are the Best - Our guide Randy, was friendly, funny & very knowledgeable. He made sure he gave us instructions several times. It had been raining quite a lot in the area & the trails were full of water. It was a fun experience even though we could not do the gold panning because the river water was so high. The ATV's were all enclosed with heat & a defroster. We were given rain boots to use & helmets to wear. Randy made sure we did not do anything unsafe & made the tour fun & interesting!
