If you’re planning a trip to Alaska, these are 5 hikes you honestly don’t want to miss — and we’re saying that after nearly 3 years of living here and exploring as much of the state as we possibly can. Some of these aren’t just Alaska favorites… they’re genuinely among our favorite hikes in the world.
- Mt. Edgecumbe, Kruzof Island near Sitka
- South Fork Valley, Eagle River
- Reed Lakes, Hatcher Pass
- Harding Icefield, Kenai Fjords National Park
- Root Glacier, Wrangell-St. Elias National Park
We’ve shared a lot of hikes over the years, but these are the ones we keep coming back to — the kind you don’t just do once.
