Help your guide paddle across the vast Portage Lake with dramatic mountain views leading to the reveal of Portage Glacier, or let the guide do all the work and sit back to relax! Choose an extended shore excursion or hike Portage Pass with views of the glacier and Prince William Sound.
All levels, all ages adventure! Our float begins on the vast Portage Lake and weather depending, we will explore the lake before heading down the river. Occasionally, icebergs can be seen in the lake.
Portage Valley has evidence of a recent glacier recession. Your guide will give you an interpretative hike through forests, under the alpine glaciers, and around glacier blue ponds as we make our way to the vast Portage Lake.
