Exit Glacier - Seward, Alaska

Located in the Kenai Fjords National Park, Exit Glacier is the only section of the park accessible by road. The glacier itself is a striking cool blue sheet of ice that comes from the Harding Icefield, and is near to an array of landscapes like rainforest, barren rock, alpine meadows and cottonwood forest for a striking scene.


In this area you’ll be able to enjoy hiking trails and ranger-guided walks with the opportunity to get extremely close to an active glacier. It’s a place where people go to enjoy Alaska’s scenic beauty and learn more about how glaciers shape the landscape and contribute to the ecosystem.

Exit Glacier is a year-round attraction, with the warmer months being popular with hikers and winter being the perfect time for snowmobiling, dog sledding and cross-country skiing. To get to the glacier many people walk from the Nature Center, from which many trails begin.
