Tongass National Forest

After a dozen years of running kayak tours in Ketchikan, we're consistently surprised at the number of visitors who never set foot in the Rain Forest. Our E-Bike tour originated from a desire to get more visitors into this amazing rain forest. With almost 200 inches of rain annually, there really is no place as lush and unique as Southeast Alaska. The forest floor is bountiful with all kinds of Flora and Fauna and depending on the time of season its not unusual to see deer or or salmon swimming up stream. Port times for most folks are very limited, so we wanted to maximize your time by combining multiple activities on this tour. Plus we wanted to offer more than just a hiking tour anyway. So we made the trip to the trailhead half the adventure in itself. And how could we not stop along the shoreline of the sea along the way back? It's not unheard of to see Porpoises, Seals and Sea Lions or sometimes Humpbacks from the beach.

Electric assist bicycles are bicycles. You pedal them and shift gears like any other bike. They are very quiet in operation and are not classified as a motorized vehicle. However, when you want a little boost in your ride just twist the throttle and you'll quickly see why e-bikes are so much fun to ride. These bikes are powerful and seriously cool. We can cover more distance using e-bikes than conventional bicycles, you don't have to worry about keeping up, and they are the perfect way to get just the amount of exercise you're after. They are very accommodating with a step-through frame so you don't have to throw a leg over the bike to get on and off. We recharge our e-bikes with hydro power so they are a clean source of fun. Our tour usually max's out at 8 people, so no chance of getting lost in the crowd. Get out of town with us on your visit to Ketchikan this summer!

Reiven and Cheyenne were great guides! The ebike ride was easy and on paved roads. Two stops along the way to look at waterfalls. The hike through the rainforest and along the beach was beautiful with lots of interesting information about the flora and fauna of the area.

Enjoyable and easy ride along paved roads and then a nice bush hike. Was a fun outing and some nice scenery. Guides were great.

This is the perfect way to explore and get to know the Tongass National Forest!! Our guides, Brenna and Cheyenne, were incredible!! So knowledgeable, kind, and easygoing. My fiancee and I were so lucky to be the only ones on this tour and we were truly treated like VIPs, but I’m sure anyone in any group size would also feel this way. The biking portion of the excursion was fun going up and down hills and stopping at a few gorgeous waterfalls on the way to the trail. The electric bikes made it so easy to get around. An eagle flew right over us as we were biking too! The hike was the highlight of the excursion. Being surrounded by some of the most beautiful landscapes I’ve ever hiked and learning all about the incredible animals and plants that make their home in the Tongass National Forest was fascinating, from plants you could eat to moss you could drink from! We did climb one of the biggest trees we saw and had so much fun! I would recommend this tour to anyone who is hoping to experience a more active adventure, learn more about Alaska’s flora and fauna, and enjoy getting away from the more touristy attractions in Ketchikan.

Cohecha and Raven were amazing guides. The bike ride was easy and smooth. The bikes were really nice and were fun to ride. The hike in the forest was beautiful and our guides provided local knowledge. Walking on the beach where the receded ocean used to be was super cool. We saw many sea stars and a sea urchin. There were a few seals swimming around that were fun to try and track. Our ride back was easy and we ended with some cold drinks and a delicious salmon dip with crackers. We would highly recommend this excursion.
