Located 40 miles south of Anchorage, Girdwood is one of Alaska’s premier year-round recreational areas and is the home of Mt. Alyeska. To reach this small community, drive forty-five minutes south of Anchorage along Turnagain Arm. The drive itself is breathtaking and is said to be one of the top ten most scenic highways in the United States. Girdwood lies at the base of the Chugach Mountains and is famous for its hanging glaciers, beautiful views, and scenery.
Eleven miles from Girdwood is the Portage Glacier where the Begich-Boggs Visitor Center presents a very informative film about glaciers as well as a number of glacier exhibits.
