Bartlett Lake Trail
Activity:
Hiking
Summary:
The chatter of red squirrels will accompany you as you wind your way over and around moss-covered boulders and lichen-covered trees before reaching the shores of Bartlett Lake. During this full-day journey, you may be richly rewarded in solitude and perhaps even the call of loons. This trail is less maintained so use caution to not lose the route. Bring water, lunch and raingear.
Length:
8 miles roundtrip
Elevation:
100 feet elevation gain
Difficulty:
Moderate
Starting Point:
Park at the Glacier Bay Lodge/Visitor Center and walk up the road 1/2 mile to the Bartlett River trailhead. Begin walking on the Bartlett River Trail and you will reach a signpost about 3/4 mile down the trail. Branch off and begin to climb the moraine.
