Plan Around Paddling

Paddling Details
Visitors can get off the beaten path and explore Glacier Bay National Park by kayak or raft. Whether you bring your own equipment, rent locally, or sign up for a guided trip, paddling gets you up close to nature via the park's waterways. If you are paddling without a guide, you should have previous experience and carry all necessary safety equipment. Rafting trips typically explore the Tatshenshini and Alsek rivers -- a world-class float trip in boats capable of carrying more equipment and comforts than a kayak. Both modes of transport offer incredible views and unique perspective to the park's wild coast. Check with local outfitters for details on arranging a guided kayak or rafting trip.
