Moose Pass Kayaking Adventure on Trail Lake

Our guides bring this small Alaskan town’s history to life and the stories of locals like Alaska Nellie, Gold Miner Joe, Mad Sally and the Iditarod Trail provide plenty to ponder as you paddle along the shores of Trail Lake. Whether you’re visiting us from the campground down the street, part of a wedding party lodging here in town, or just passing through on an epic Seward Highway road trip, Moose Pass has so much to offer. There’s no better way to get out and experience the nature and beauty of the area than in our two person kayaks, right here in the heart of the Chugach Mountains!

Iditarod National Historic Trail

, , Alaska

We love sharing our knowledge about Alaska. From it's amazing human history to it's rugged geologic past. Trail Lake is located on the Historic Iditarod Trail and we'll even travel under the Alaskan Railroad.
Moose Pass and Trail Lake are located right next to the Iditarod National historic Trail. As a matter of fact, when we can, we love to participate on the trail crew to help restore the original trail for hikers and historians to enjoy. It's a dream of ours to one day see this entire trail hikeable from Seward North, just like when it all started! We've got lots of stories to share about this amazing, important part of Alaskan history.

Moose Pass

Moose Pass, Alaska

This little town has quite the storied past. With one of the oldest schools and longest running libraries on the Kenai Peninsula, a grocery store that was moved across town on logs and a lodge and restaurant that started out as the remote Jockey Club, but once had black lights and a disco ball inside. Well, let's just say, there's plenty of things, people and places to talk about. We can't wait.

Trail Lake

, , Alaska

After our general orientation and kayak instruction, we'll spend around 2 hours of our trip on the glacially fed Trail Lake. Trail Lake has Rainbow Trout, Lake Trout and other fish in it's waters and empties into Kenai Lake, which allows for salmon to find their way up through as well! There are often bears or moose along the shores and plenty of Bald Eagles in the area as well.
