The Kodiak Audubon Society invites you to join us for a stroll, a hike, or a climb! All hikes are free and open to the public. Meet your hike leader at 9:30 am in front of the Kodiak Island Convention & Visitors Bureau (Ferry Building) at the end of Center Avenue, downtown. The hike difficulty is rated from 1 (easy walk) to 5 (difficult) so you can select trips with a level of difficulty you can manage.

The mission of Kodiak Audubon is to conserve Alaskas natural ecosystems focusing on birds, other wildlife, and their habitats for the benefit and enjoyment of current and future generations.
