Experience Alaska

Activities Beyond Fishing, For guests that want to see it all

At Tikchik Narrows Lodge, the adventures are as vast and diverse as the Alaskan wilderness, making it the perfect retreat for families, friends, and adventure-seekers alike. We understand that not everyone in your group may share the same enthusiasm for fishing, which is why we offer a variety of Alaska experiences. Witness the iconic brown bears of Katmai National Park at Brooks Falls as they skillfully fish for salmon, or explore Alaska's natural wonders through hiking, foraging, or paddleboarding. Take to the skies for a flightseeing tour over the Valley of Ten Thousand Smokes, or immerse yourself in pristine habitats perfect for bird hunting, kayaking, and more. No matter your passion, Tikchik provides the ultimate Alaskan escape.

Bear Viewing

Bear viewing at Brooks Falls in Katmai National Park is a unique and thrilling wildlife experience, offering a front-row seat to watch brown bears as they fish for salmon leaping up the falls.

Eco Tours

Eco-tours in Bristol Bay are ideal for family members and other travelers who may not share the strong passion for fishing but still want to explore Alaska. These experiences provide an opportunity to immerse in Alaska's wilderness through activities like flightseeing, wildlife viewing, hiking, paddleboarding, kayaking, photography and more.
