Such beautiful scenery - Many times I expect the photos to not be representative of the experience. In this case it was just as beautiful as the photos. Our guides were so friendly.

Great hike - This was a fun hike around Beaver Lake. It had some uphill but was mostly flat and an easy hike. Marshall was a great guide and very informative.

Marshall and Sadie met us... - Marshall and Sadie met us right at the boat dock, which was a plus given the chaotic shuttle service into town. They gave us a couple of hike options and our group chose the trail up to Beaver Lake south of Sitka. What a winning decision! The rain forest was stunning, with the trail winding up alongside waterfalls. Our guides were extensively knowledgeable about the forest and surrounding area and were talented, intelligent and interesting young people with fascinating life experiences to share with us as we hiked along.
After reaching the lake, and stopping for a snack and photos, we continued on up to the muskeg environment above it, where the views opened to the snow-capped peaks all around. Truly breathtaking. One of the most memorable hikes we've ever taken.

Nice hike! - Adventure was excellent. Hill climb was a bit tougher than expected, so be prepared! Good knees and moderate fitness makes it more enjoyable.

A Memorable Hike in Sitka - a fantastic way to explore the natural beauty of Sitka. The hike takes you through forests and breathtaking views of the surrounding mountains and coastline. Our guide was a wealth of information about local wildlife, plants, and the area’s history. It’s a moderate hike, suitable for most fitness levels, though some sections can be challenging. Overall, it’s a great way to experience the outdoors in Sitka while getting a little exercise and learning about the area.

Beautiful hike, would recommend only for experienced hikers. - This is a gorgeous hike with very helpful friendly tour guides that gave us lots of cool info on the way there. But it was very difficult (think steep incline while navigating TONS of rocks) and it didn't leave much time to actually see Beaver Lake. I would recommend this hike for people who are avid experienced hikers.
