5It was a great hike. My...
It was a great hike. My family members were new to hiking and reported they had a great time. Lochlan was very informative and was great.
5Hike
Great hike at Exit Glacier, not difficult with good views Guide was knowledgeable and accommodating.
5Moderate Hike in Rainforest
We spent 2+ hours hiking the Lost Lake Trail with Lochlan. It is a beautiful trail and Lochlan was a great guide. He shared his knowledge of local vegetation and treated us to hot chocolate at the turnaround point, which had a great view of a wilderness river below. We would highly recommend this hike for those looking for a moderate hike in the rainforest surrounding Seward.
5Beautiful day for a great hike with an excellent guide!
Lachlan gave us a great experience hiking up to see views of Exit Glacier. He shared so many great facts and stories to add more to our hike. Highly recommend!!!
5Fantastic hike
This hike was perfect for beginners and intermediates, especially since we didn’t have much time. Lochlan was an excellent guide, and both my wife and I thoroughly enjoyed the experience.
5A must do hike!
Derek was an outstanding guide! He shared knowledge of the plants, animals, and historical geography throughout the hike. He was so easy to talk with and went above and beyond to make sure our trip was perfect! I am so glad we went this route instead of just hiking ourselves. Worth every penny spent.

About Seward
Seward is a small harbour town at the head of Resurrection Bay in Alaska, the gateway to Kenai Fjords National Park with its glaciers and sea life.
Seward sits at the head of Resurrection Bay on the Alaskan Kenai Peninsula, backed by steep mountains. It was founded in 1903 as the starting point of a railroad into Alaska's interior and named for William Seward, the US Secretary of State who arranged the purchase of Alaska. The harbour is a base for fishing boats and sightseeing cruises, and a trail runs along the waterfront. The Seward Highway to Anchorage winds through mountains and beside Turnagain Arm.
