Alaska is a state unlike any other, with awe-inspiring vistas around every corner. In fact, eight of the 63 major US national parks are located in the state.
After spending weeks solo traveling in a van through Alaska, the park that impressed me the most was Kenai Fjords National Park.
Located on the Kenai Peninsula, the park encompasses 600,000 acres of coastal islands, fjords, glaciers, and mountain peaks.
The park is vast, varied, and home to a portion of the Harding Icefield Trail.
I loved hiking to Exit Glacier, sea kayaking on Resurrection Bay, and learning about wildlife on a guided sightseeing cruise.
