Overview

Welcome to Alaska Alpine Adventures’ 12th season offering Alaska's finest wilderness trips. As always, they’re excited to share their passion for Alaska. With its wildlife, its majestic scenery, its wonderful hiking, backpacking, kayaking, river rafting, and mountaineering, Alaska is like no other place on earth. Simply stated, if you seek pure adventure travel, Alaska has no rivals!

Whether you are looking for a private family tour of the state, an Alaska hiking trip through the tundra, a spectacular backpacking adventure, or a multisport kayaking or rafting adventure, Alaska Alpine Adventures will custom create your ideal Alaskan vacation package.

How does Alaska Alpine Adventures offer this season after season? Because Alaska Adventure travel is their passion! Their commitment demands personalized, custom, and gourmet adventure trips for each client. Alaska Alpine Adventures’ experience lets them craft unique and affordable itineraries. They continue to offer the same trip amenities you’ve come to expect: small group sizes, knowledgeable and attentive guides, tasty cuisine, and of course, spectacular guided hiking, backpacking, kayaking and rafting adventures through the magnificent Alaskan landscape.

Since 1998, Alaska Alpine Adventures has built their business with a combination vision, people, and experience. To this day it is the blend of “what they do” and “who they are” that makes Alaska Alpine Adventures. They are quite simply a group of explorers and naturalists sharing with guests the incredible beauty of Alaska – The Great Land.

By immersing themselves in Alaska every season, Alaska Alpine Adventures is given the opportunity to participate in an experience that is elemental, powerful, wonderful, and at times inexplicable. Every journey and encounter has given them amazing memories, lasting friendships, and valuable experience. Collectively these adventures have shaped the company. In addition to Lake Clark and Katmai National Parks, Alaska Alpine Adventures’ menu of guided trips also includes adventures to Denali, Kenai Fjords, Wrangell-St. Elias, Gates of the Arctic, the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge and many more spectacular and rarely seen areas.

Alaska Alpine Adventures incorporates an educational component into all of their itineraries. For most guests, this is their first time hiking, kayaking, or rafting in the Alaska backcountry. From the moment a guest steps off the float-plane, they are immersed in one of the most spectacular and relevant mountain classrooms on earth. Alaska Alpine Adventures teaches clients how to paddle the rafts or kayaks, how to navigate in a trail-less wilderness, how to travel safely in bear country, and how to leave the wilderness as pristine as they found it.

Guides
It takes a talented individual to be able to lead an Alaska expedition, and Alaska Alpine Adventures’ lead guides are true outdoor multi-sport professionals.

Each is medically certified as a Wilderness First Responder and carries the necessary qualifications to competently backpack, hike, kayak, canoe, and climb throughout Alaska's vast wilderness.
