Portage Glacier and the Begich, Boggs Visitor Center is an interesting stop thanks to exhibits that let visitors walk through a simulated ice cave, view live ice worms or touch an iceberg.

Today you are heading back on the Seward Highway to Anchorage but before you do, visit Kenai Fjords National Park home to some of most pristine, rugged and breathtaking glacial vistas in North America.
