Review:
The Alyeska Aerial Tram offers a fun, family-friendly way for you to spend the day in Girdwood. The tram is a 5-minute scenic ride from Hotel Alyeska all the way to the top of Mount Alyeska. During the ride you’ll be able to see gorgeous 360-degree views of the surroundings, which include the peaks of the Chugach Mountain range, various glaciers, and the Turnagain Arm. During the summer months, be sure to keep an eye out for bear and moose sightings, which are common from the aerial tram. Once you’re at the peak’s observation deck, you’ll get an even clearer view of the sparkling streams, majestic mountains, and resident wildlife; it’s a great place to enjoy your lunch or take in the glowing sunset.
