3 Hour Rainforest Walk and Totem Park

Overview

Enjoy a rainforest walk and visit a Totem Park on our 3 hour excursion in scenic Ketchikan, Alaska on this small group tour with local guide.

Explore the lush green rainforest of Alaska among huge old growth trees and moss blanketing the forest floor. The remote nature trail follows a cascading creek and we stop at a beautiful waterfall viewing area. The trail does have several sets of stairs and uphill / downhill portions. Experience natures beauty up close and step into this treasured land on our approximately 1.5 mile hike. Escape the crowds and take in the fresh air and peacefulness of the forest.

Tracy was very knowledgable and could answer all the questions asked by the group. The hike was intimate with only 8-10 people which made it nice to hear questions, comments and answers. We learned so much about the Tongas rain forest and the Totem park. We would highly recommend the tour to anyone that can do a mild hike (a few steep steps). We also love the fact that Tracy is local and shared other facts about Ketchikan not related to the Rain Forest (like housing/gas/food prices, schools, etc). -Jim and Deb

The owner (Trudy?) was our guide. Born in Ketchikan, very knowledgeable. Great hike in the forest. Also enjoyed the totems.

Our rainforest walk and totem Park tour was unexpectedly wondrous and magical. Like no other experience the juxtaposition of towering snow covered mountains and a temperate rainforest was just unbelievably beautiful. Our tour guide who is in native to the area was extremely knowledgeable and makes a heck of a salmon dip.
