There are only two national forests in Alaska – the Tongass Forest and the Chugach Forest. Yet they hold the prestige of being the largest in the nation. The forest closest to Anchorage is the Chugach – a stunning landscape that surrounds the snowy peaks of Prince William Sound. Its reach stretches across from south central Alaska to the famous salmon and trout streams of the Kenai Peninsula. One of the few places where glaciers still grind valleys into the hard rock, this breathtaking piece of earth hosts a myriad of ecological marvels. The three landscapes of the Prince William Sound, Copper River Delta and the Easter Kenai Peninsula are dream destinations for nature enthusiasts and adventurers alike.
A million visitors each year leave their footprints on this wondrous creation of Mother Nature. This once in a lifetime destination will hold a special place in the hearts of everyone young and old, whether they come here to camp with the family or watch the thousands of shorebirds that have made this forest their home. The natives of Alaska can also be seen working in the forest, following a way of life that has been handed to them from generation to generation.
