What to expect
Join this winter hike to discover the natural beauty of Alaska during winter! Follow your guide along a 4-mile trail through the Chugach State Park.
The first part of this tour takes you to the network of forested trails found at the Eagle River Nature Center, nestled deep along the north fork of the Chugach State Park's massive Eagle River. You may see the American Dipper swimming, or moose and small mammals like the snowshoe hare or red fox.
Then, take a short ride to the Chugach State Park's best waterfall, Barbara Falls. This section is a short half-mile walk that features incredible ice dams, shimmering snow crystals, and point-and-shoot photo opportunities around every corner. It's super rewarding and a great way to conclude your tour.
