Half-Day Guided Kayak Tour on Knik River

Aperçu

New in 2023!
Experience Alaska on the original roads and routes aka its rivers and lakes. This tour transverses one of the most sublime landscapes and panoramic views in all of Southcentral Alaska and the Mat Su Valley. You will find salmon swimming under your paddle craft as they migrate to their spawning grounds. Also, expect to see ducks and eagles fly overhead and maybe even find a moose standing in the water eating a meal.

This tour starts by paddling across Jim Lake and then a short overland portage into Jim Creek.
Finally, exit on the beach of the Knik River that flows from the Knik Glacier, and while there get some pictures with the glacier in the background. The Knik Glacier is the headwaters of the Knik River and is the largest glacier in Southcentral Alaska. After this brief pause to take some photos, and view the scenery, we will continue our paddle down the Kink River to our exit point of the old Knik River Bridge.

Had a great time kayaking. Derreck was friendly, engaging, and attentive to us and knows a lot about the area. We saw a moose and enjoyed the calmness, while kayaking. Highly recommended.

Found the guide to be knowledgeable and very safety conscious. Everything was provided for the trip and given plenty of instruction regarding the half-day paddle activity and instruction on appropriate dress. As a group, it was a fun day. Not being from Alaska, I got to see parts up-close I had only seen on the map. Great Day!
