“It’s designated as an All-American Road and Scenic By-Way for good reason. The highway runs along the coast south of Anchorage, with the Cook Inlet on your right and the mountains of Chugach State Park on your left.” -
Alaska Wildlife Conservation Center - “The Alaska Wildlife Conservation Center (AWCC) is situated in Portage Valley, surrounded by the stunning Chugach Mountain Range and Turnagain Arm Inlet.
Enjoy over 200 acres of animal enclosures by exploring our scenic 1.5-mile loop, accessible on foot, by bike, or by car, while learning about our resident wildlife. We look forward to welcoming you to the Alaska Wildlife Conservation Center and hope you have a wonderful visit!” - Portage Glacier - “As one of Alaska’s most accessible glaciers and a top attraction, Portage Glacier is the crown jewel in a valley adorned with alpine glaciers. The Portage Valley was literally carved by glaciers and is now an ideal spot for exploration.”

This is a fantastic opportunity to observe many of Alaska’s most sought-after wildlife in a secure and animal-friendly park! The bears are charming, but encountering one in the wild can be quite daunting. Many of Alaska’s wildlife species are elusive, and even though moose are quite common, visitors might go days or even weeks without spotting one, while on some days, you might see several. However, a visit to Alaska’s Wildlife Conservation Center ensures you’ll see these animals and many more!
Licensed by Alaska’s Transportation Department, this tour is designed for groups of 3 to 10 people due to the structure of Viator commissions and park fees. If you are traveling alone or as a pair, you can still book the tour, but the charge will be for 3 to 10 people to make it viable. Hope that makes sense.
