Enjoyed a visit to this National Forest. Didn’t have the opportunity to hike but enjoyed the top notch visitor’s center (and NP passport stamp!) and boat ride on Portage Lake to view Portage Glacier up close. Highly recommend!

We did find that along the Seward highway there were many miles of paved trails running next to the highway with safe transition areas as they passed through turnouts and parking areas.…
