Description
As the original electric bicycle tour in Southeast Alaska, we're excited for you to join us on an easy, enjoyable ride on the "road to nowhere". This road dead ends at the edge of the dense Tongass National Forest, an extensive wilderness where you will then take an enjoyable, guided, educational hike along a well maintained trail beside an active salmon spawning stream. The hiking features a beautiful waterfall along the path as well as stunning beach views with potential to spot intertidal creatures, black bears and marine mammals along the coast. The dense rainforest is the highlight of the loop trail through the Tongass and changes throughout the season.
All our tours provide round trip transportation from both the Downtown Cruise docks & the New Dock at Ward Cove. Excellent rain gear is provided should you need it.
The bike ride is 11 miles roundtrip and the hike (in the middle) is about 1.25 miles but with a maximum of 10 guests per tour. All of our tours are intimate and very educational. Often times throughout the summer we are the only tour out at the end of the road. What really sets us apart though are our guides. We are proud of our team and their rich blend of experiences and personalities that will guide your journey with us, surpassing the typical tours led by inexperienced seasonal guides.
After enjoying your guided hike you'll return to your e-bikes to cycle back to our marina. Smoked salmon, salmon dip and other snacks (including vegan options), hot and cold beverages and a great view are awaiting you when we return.
