    Available Tours      

Grewingk Glacier Lake Loop

Starting at Rusty's Lagoon on Glacier Spit, hike through geologic time as you walk the way of the glacier. This easy to moderate hike takes you through beaches, forests and glacial moraines. After reaching the lake, continue the loop by way of the Saddle Trail. Perfect for all hikers.

Alpine Ridge Hike

This intermediate to advanced hike offers spectacular views of Kachemak Bay, Grewingk Glacier and the Kenai Mountains. Starting at sea level, pass through dense spruce forest and make your way above the timber line. At 2,200', hikers are rewarded alpine meadows, tarns and overlooks. Bear, goats, moose, ptarmigan and marmots are frequently seen, but other hikers are not. For the most serious adventure-seekers, consider attempting the summit at 3,600'. This makes for a 12-hour day, but is well worth the reward.

Grewingk Glacier Kayak & Hike

The best way to experience Kachemak Bay State Park is by land and sea. This trip combines a half-day of kayaking and a half day of hiking. Kayak from Halibut Cove to the Saddle Trail and then hike to Grewingk Glacier Lake to get a taste of both worlds. This trip is for intermediate to advanced adventurers due to a steep climb and head-wind paddle.
