This National Park is the smallest one in Alaska. It was founded in 1980. A good way to visit the Kenai Fjords National Park is by cruise ship. You can book trips from Seward for five, six, eight or ten hours. We booked a trip for the whole day. We got a small lunch and a dinner.
During the cruise …

Went from Homer "across the bay" to Kachemak State Park for an awesome trip hiking and kayaking. Icebergs, glaciers, cool sea creatures, seafood soup and fresh fish, sea otters, seals, whales and eagles.... Sleeping in tents (watching out for bears) camp fires and 24 hours of light. Plus, NO ONE ELS…

Have worked in Norway for a while and stayed at a number of hotels in the country I can honestly say that this was the best hotel that I have seen in the country. It is fairly expensive (Around 200 a person) but it luxurious. It is located near Geiranger, which lonely planet says is the best thing t…

When I was researching stuff to do in Juneau, I kept coming back to this all day cruise through the Tracy Arm Fjord and to see Sawyer Glacier. I read this part of Alaska is known for the largest icebergs in the state and I thought this would be a great trip to really give me the overall feel of Alas…

Well the park is really great. from mid summer on you can see bears about every 5 or 10 min at the salmon spawning stream. The Bear viewing area is elevated from the stream so you are safe. There are also many park rangers around answering questions. they usually take a chunk of the glacier and set…

We had a BLAST on this trip. Its an all day thing, so we brought a cooler of beer and kicked back all day long.
It takes about an hour and a half each way to get to the sawyer glacier, along the way we say humpback whales, and waterfalls, seals, iceburgs, and drank beer.
once you get to the firs…

this was an amazing trip. you fly out from the harbor downtown right by all the cruise ships and fly over the whole Juneau Ice field. the views from the glacier from the sky are amazing. every seat is a window seat - and you wear headphones and listen to narriation along the way.
the landing is…

This campground won best campground of the summer by far. About a third of the campsites are right along the lake where you'll essentially have a glacier in your backyard. 7 pieces of firewood are included in the price of the campsite! Also, tent sites have a tent pad and some are even wheelchair ac…

When in Fox Glacier, South Island of New Zealand, I decided to climb a glacier! You have the option of doing 3 different hikes. The first one and most basic is just a stroll to the glacier front, the 2nd one is a half day adventure hike that gets you on top of the glacier but you don't really get to…

This is another beautiful hike in the Canadian Rockies. My wife and I went there in 1999. Starting point is the Château Lake Louise at the famous lake. Come early to get a great view of the lake and to avoid the crowds of tourists!
There are several trails in the lake area. We chose to go for th…

Hielo y Aventura provide three options for seeing Perito Moreno up close.
The shortest and easiest is a short boat excursion on the Brazo Rico to see the south face of the glacier from the lake itself. I would argue that the views from the boat are not much better than the views from the platf…

Parker's Ridge Trail is a short but steep hike in the Canadian Rockies. It offers great views of the Saskatchewan Glacier which is part of the mighty Columbia Icefield.
The path can be easily accessed from famous Icefields Parkway in Banff National Park (close to Sunwapta Pass). There is a signed…
