Kawanti Adventures is a Ketchikan-based eco-adventure operator specializing in guided zipline, wildlife and off-road experiences across Southeast Alaska. The company designs and runs small-group tours that include the Rainforest Canopy & Zipline Adventure in Ketchikan, an Alpine Zipline Adventure in Juneau, the road-accessible Black Bear viewing Express, off-road Polaris RZR expeditions, and guided walks through the Alaska Rainforest Sanctuary and Totem Park.
Guides focus on safety, interpretation, and responsible wildlife viewing. Zipline tours use a nine-line canopy system with platforms and suspension bridges that deliver elevated views of the Tongass Rainforest, frequent bald eagle sightings, and opportunities to spot black bears from a safe distance. Groups on the most intensive zipline tour are limited to nine participants to preserve a personal guide-to-guest ratio.
The Rainforest Sanctuary and Totem Park experiences highlight local culture and conservation. Guests walk boardwalks through estuary habitat, learn about totem carving at a historic sawmill, and visit one of the largest Tsimshian totem pole parks in the United States. The operator also offers a guided RZR mountain drive with scenic overlooks of Behm Canal and the surrounding forest.
Kawanti Adventures emphasizes eco-friendly practices, experienced local guides, and clear pre-trip information. Reservations, duration details, age and weight limits, and accessibility notes are provided at booking. These combinations of safety, cultural interpretation, and small-group attention make the company a reliable choice for visitors seeking active, nature-focused tours in Ketchikan and nearby Juneau. Booking information, seasonal availability, and safety requirements are available online or by phone for trip planning.
