Alaska Wild and Unplugged

Explore and hike the backcountry of Alaska in Lake Clark National Park on our 8 Day, Women-Only, Small Group Hiking Adventure Tour in Alaska.
Immerse yourself in the last frontier and experience Alaska the way Mother Nature intended. It will take a Bush plane and a Float plane ride to access the wilds of Alaska.
Once landing on Turquoise Lake in the heart of Lake Clark National Park, you’ll quickly feel at home in your cozy tent along the shoreline. Bask in the sunset rays painted across the sky while your local guides cook up delicious, backcountry meals.
We’ll head off in a new direction to explore Lake Clark National Park every day. Day hikes will be on unmarked terrain that haven’t seen the influence of humans. We’ll rely on the expertise of our local guides, maps, and compasses for navigation. We’ll hike through the stunning 5000′ tall Grand Canyon of Lake Clark National Park. We’ll hike across the Alaskan tundra to witness a natural sheep lick near a Dall Sheep habitat.
After 3 days at our basecamp, we’ll pack then load up our inflatable sea kayaks with our backcountry gear. We’ll push off from shore and begin the 5 mile paddle across Turquoise Lake to the far end. We’ll be kayaking on flat water which is suitable for beginners. We’ll explore the landscape from our new campsite for the next 2 days by embarking on day hikes in new directions each day.
All too soon, the arrival of our float plane landing on Turquoise Lake will mark our slow return to civilization. The float plane drops us off at a cluster of quaint cabins along the shore of 35 mile long Lake Clark for our final evening. We’ll relish in a hot shower and feast at a local restaurant. On the last day of our adventure, we’ll board a charter flight that will take us back to Anchorage.
