About this tour

Trade crowded viewpoints for the quiet trails of the Alaskan rainforest on a guided hike in Sitka. With a local guide leading the way, explore rugged terrain and discover the natural character of this special place.

Along the route, hear about local culture, flora, fauna, and history while taking on steep climbs and getting off the beaten path.

Your guide carries bear spray, and trekking poles, sunscreen, snacks, private transportation, and a safety briefing are provided. Bring your own backpack and bottled water; neither is included.

How this score is calculated

This score is based on one provider. Viator rates it 5.00 from 60 reviews. We place that rating among all Viator ratings and weight it by its review count. If the tour is found on another provider later, both ratings are combined.

How the score works and rating distribution in Sitka
  • Each provider rating is turned into a percentile: the share of that provider's ratings it beats, weighted by review counts.
  • Listings on different providers are combined in proportion to their review counts.
  • Tours with few reviews are pulled toward the average until more reviews come in, so a handful of perfect reviews can't top the list.
  • The result is shown from 0 to 10: this tour scores 8.8. Top 12% in Sitka means it ranks in the top 12% of tours in Sitka by this score.
