2027 Rowing Alaska trips

Come to row.
Leave knowing Alaska differently.

Small groups, meaningful miles, and enough time to experience the place beyond the boat.

August Dates being finalized

Five-day core · Optional two-day extension

Late-Summer Alaska

Long rows, changing light, and a little more quiet at the edge of the season. The final route will be chosen for both the rowing and the place.

These are planned dates and experiences. Final routes and day-by-day plans will remain flexible because weather and water conditions come first.

Choose your experience

One day, a local base,
or farther into Alaska.

These are starting points, not rigid packages. Tell me how you want to row and what you want to experience, and we’ll talk directly about a trip that fits.

01

A Day on the Water

A single-day row with a route chosen for the conditions, the distance, and the view. It’s a focused way to experience Alaska from a shell without building an entire trip around it.

  • One carefully chosen location
  • Meaningful miles with time to look up
  • Route matched to conditions and experience
02

Row & Stay

A multi-day trip based from thoughtfully chosen small lodges or local accommodations. We row, explore, and return somewhere comfortable at the end of the day.

  • Multiple days and locations
  • Smaller, locally connected places to stay
  • Time to experience Alaska off the water
03

Row & Camp

For rowers who want to go farther, camping can be part of a multi-day journey. The route and overnight plan are built carefully around access, conditions, and the group.

  • Camping is always optional
  • Remote shoreline possibilities
  • Designed around safe, practical logistics

A sample five-day itinerary

The itinerary follows Alaska—not the other way around.

  1. Arrive and settle in. Meet in Anchorage, get oriented, and talk through gear, boats, experience, and current conditions.
  2. Begin on protected water. Start with a route that lets the group find its rhythm while taking in the first real view from the boat.
  3. Travel farther. Move into the Kenai Peninsula or another Southcentral Alaska base for rowing and exploring.
  4. Keep one day flexible. Wind and water decide where we row; the itinerary leaves room to choose the best experience available.
  5. Finish with one more look. A final row or Alaska morning before returning to Anchorage.

This is the shape of a trip, not a promise of a specific route. The full day-by-day itinerary will be developed for each departure.

Optional two-day extensions offer more time to row and explore. Contact me to discuss the extension for your departure.
