Take the winding road out to Lowell Point and you can access hiking trails that lead to more remote beaches in Resurrection Bay. Take the tides into consideration when planning hikes to these beaches. A trip to Exit Glacier gives visitors a chance to stand face to face with a receding glacier and marvel at the blue hues and immensity of the ice. The Harding Icefield Trail runs adjacent to the glacier and takes hikers up to an expansive view of the glacier and the icefield.
