The raw energy of Homer, Alaska, greets you the moment you step onto the trail with Captain B's Alaskan C's Adventures. Here, guided explorations are designed to introduce you to the unvarnished beauty of the Kenai Peninsula – forests that whisper with life, creeks daring you to cross, and coastal views that expand your sense of space.

Each guided hike is a balanced blend of challenge and accessibility. Trails range between 3 to 8 miles, with elevation gains typically between 400 and 1,200 feet, winding through a variety of terrain. You’ll move from sturdy forest paths littered with pine needles to rocky ridgelines where the wind pushes forward, urging steady footing. The guides are not just navigators but storytellers who connect you to the land’s fierce, weather-shaped character – a landscape that honors patience and respect.

The experience doesn’t demand expertise but rewards preparedness. Bring waterproof boots with tread sharp enough to grip slippery rocks and roots, dress in layered clothing to respond to sudden weather shifts, and carry enough water to stay hydrated—2 liters is a solid minimum for half-day journeys. Start early to make the most of daylight and to catch moments when morning light floods alpine meadows or softens the shadows through the spruce.

Captain B’s team keeps group sizes small, fostering a connection that goes beyond the usual march through nature. You are invited to listen in on the subtle conversations of rustling leaves and flowing streams, and to recognize the land’s challenges — wet, uneven footing and exposed slopes that demand a steady pace.

This is an outdoor adventure anchored in practical exploration, offering something for casual walkers wanting a taste of wilderness and for seasoned hikers chasing fresh perspectives. Whether your goal is spotting eagles hunting above the bay, scanning ocean waves for lurking otters, or simply feeling the pulse of Alaskan wilds underfoot, these guided hikes offer a direct route to an Alaska fiercely itself.
