Quick Details
The trip begins once we get our guests properly geard up at our shop, get them on our shuttle vans and head to Lowell Point Beach. At the beach our guides conduct a safety brief followed by getting our guests fitted into their kayaks. While paddling southbound along the Resurrection Bay coastline look for an abundance of sea life, eagles, jumping salmon, sea birds, porpoise, harbor seals and sea lions. When we arrive at Bridal Veil Falls Beach, we take a short walk through the rainforest on an unmaintained trail to the base of the multi-tiered waterfall. The water cascades from level to level as it flows over the submerged rock, then spreads out similarly to a bridal train, hence the name of Bridal Veil. Back to the beach, after the hike from the waterfall, we will provide a sandwhich lunch with a hot drink as well as snacks. Then we will paddle back to Lowell Point Beach for the pick up to return to A60N shop and prepare por the Exit Glacier Hike.
Once back at A60N office, we drive our guests to the Kenai Fjords National Park, where they are provided with trekking poles. The 2.2-mile easy hike takes from 1-1.5hrs to complete depending on the pace of our hikers. Our guides provide interpretive information as this hike meanders in the glacier area sharing photos of various times at which the face of the glacier was located in the past. This hike travels the lower glacier overlook trail and visits the Exit Glacier Nature Center where you can get your park cards stamped. After the hike, the guests are transported back to their lodging.
