With just a 10- to 15-minute drive out of Seward, you can hike right up to Exit Glacier and feel the dense blue ice while listening to it crackle. Walk the lower trail (a gentle half mile) to get a good photo in front of the glacier face. The trail also provides access for people with disabilities. The upper trail provides an overlook, as if you're standing right on the glacier. Please be careful, as it is an active, calving glacier. You can see the changes in vegetation with the gradual melting of the glacier, and note the signs pointing out the glacier's reach in years past.
