Worthington Glacier near Valdez, AK

Worthington Glacier State Recreational Site is 29 miles from Valdez, easily accessible off of the highway.  The recreational site consists of 113 acres. Worthington Glacier is 5,774 acres.

You can click on the pictures to enlarge them.



There are two parking areas; one at the entrance off of the highway, and one further up the hill. The parking lot on top is larger, with room for RVs. Both have restrooms.




There is an easy 0.8 mile paved path, handicapped accessible, to a viewing platform. Also a covered area with information boards.




Or you can do a difficult hike up the hill, and along a narrow ridge for 2 miles to the top. (We only went a little way up for closer pictures.)
