About

USDA Forest Service

Hop off the Train at the Spencer Whistle Stop! Take a tour with a Forest Service interpreter around the foot of Spencer Lake and then float among the icebergs that have calved off of the great glacier while the guide steers an Alaskan Native canoe. Or take a leisurely journey by raft down the Placer River toward Turnagain Arm.

All Alaska has to offer on train ride away

2020 has modified service. July 3rd - September 7th.

There are two group campsites that must be reserved through the Alaska Railroad 800.544.0552.

Clean restroom facilities Bear proof food storage Picnic tables Fire ring

Just remember pack it in pack it out on the train.

Also available for a great day hike. At a $132 a person it is not a cheap hike.
