Join us this summer for a truly exploratory hiking and rafting expedition into the seldom visited Aniakchak National Monument & Preserve, located along the volcanically active “Ring of Fire” in the heart of the Aleutian mountains. We’ll spend the first part of the trip hiking around Surprise Lake and exploring the 2500’ deep caldera, the impressive remnant of a massive volcanic eruption 3500 years ago. The expedition will culminate with an exciting 4-day rafting trip down the spectacular Aniakchak River where you’ll float from a volcano to the sea. Aniakchak National Monument & Preserve, encompassing 586,000 acres of pristine Alaska wilderness, offers amazing hiking, incredible rafting, and some of the wildest weather in Alaska in one of the least visited and most remote units of the National Park System.
