Join us for an Iconic Overnight Adventure in the Wilderness of Alaska
Get ready for an immersive journey into the heart of Alaska's untamed wilderness with our Overnight Wilderness Adventure. This tour offers a unique opportunity to experience the iconic beauty of the Last Frontier. Paddle across tranquil mountain lakes, hike through historic trails, and sleep under the Midnight Sun in a handcrafted yurt. Join us for two unforgettable days in the Alaskan wilderness!
Day 1: Kayaking and Hiking in the Alaskan Frontier
Our adventure begins as we gather in Moose pass at 10 AM for a gear orientation and essential safety talk. Once fully prepared, we'll hop in our kayaks and paddle a scenic one-mile route to the trailhead. From there, we'll hike along the historic Iditarod Trail, hearing captivating tales from our guide, and take in our first breathtaking views of Grant Lake at the end of our one mile walk.
Enjoy the wilderness and beauty of Alaska, explore Grant Lake by kayak, relax by the campfire, indulge in a frontier-style dinner, and fall asleep under the Midnight Sun in the comfort of your yurt.
*Inclusions: Guided Trail Lake tour and hike, kayaks on Grant Lake, yurt accommodation, lunch and dinner provided*
Day 2: Breakfast with a View of Grant Lake
Awaken to the serene sounds of nature and enjoy a warm breakfast while taking in the views of Grant Lake. After packing up, begin your hiking and kayaking journey back to Moose Pass.
We aim to return to Moose Pass by 11:30 AM.
*Inclusions: Guided hike, kayak tour, and breakfast provided*
Yurt Glamping: Alaska Style
Alaska, the Last Frontier, is known for its rugged beauty. Our "Alaskan Glamping" experiences let you dive into this untamed wilderness while enjoying the rustic charm of our backcountry camp.
Our handcrafted yurts keep you warm and dry, and our thick, expedition-style camp mattresses and warm sleeping bags guarantee a comfortable place to rest your head under the midnight sun.
And when nature calls, our outhouse comes with a bonus - stunning views of the Alaskan wilderness.
Get the best of both worlds: an adventure in the wild and a comfortable retreat.

**DAY OF DETAILS**
We are located in Moose Pass, less than 100 miles from Anchorage and 30 miles north of Seward. Please allow extra travel time for road construction and make sure to arrive early enough to head into Trail Lake Lodge or across the street to Estes Brother's Store to use the restroom and to get geared up before the tour start time. If you have not arrived by the designated time, your tour may leave without you, and you will not be eligible for a refund. Make sure to leave yourself plenty of travel time so that you don't "miss the boat."
