Book Description

The Kenai Peninsula Wildlife Viewing Trail features 65 carefully selected wildlife viewing sites that highlight the diversity of animals and habitats found on the Kenai Peninsula.

Visit all of the sites and you will have explored the Kenai Fjords National Park, the Chugach National Forest, many Alaska State Parks, the Kenai and Alaska Maritime National Wildlife Refuges, and several state refuges. Watch for wildlife from your car, on foot, by bike, with a canoe or kayak, and by state ferry or tour boat. And, return throughout the seasons to full discover the bears, moose, whales, salmon, eagles, otters, loons, warblers, starfish, dragonflies, and other wildlife on the Kenai.

This guide provides details on how to get to each site, what to look for when you are there, and special tips to make the most of your visit. You will also find information on wildlife species and habitats, seasonal wildlife activities, public lands, viewing, safety, and a checklist of the birds of the Kenai Peninsula.

This review is from: Alaska's Kenai Peninsula Wildlife Viewing Trail Guide (Spiral-bound)
A reasonably priced, well-written, informative, easy to read guide. Contains directions, what you will see, hints and many other pieces of info related to wildlife viewing on Kenai Peninsula. I'd recommend it for anyone who will be traveling on the Kenai Peninsula, even if you aren't bird watching or looking for specific wildlife. Great format, great pictures. A definite best value for the money. Lots of info about places to stop, sites to see. Good info for a family or for adults.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great Viewing, August 18, 2007
By 
This review is from: Alaska's Kenai Peninsula Wildlife Viewing Trail Guide (Spiral-bound)
I had friends visit the Kenai Peninsula for two weeks in July. We used this guide to find 130 bird species and all the major mammals - marine and land. It is cheap, well done, and full of information. My friends took it home as a remainder of why they love Alaska.

5.0 out of 5 stars A Perfect Guide for any Nature Enthusiast Visiting the Kenai Peninsula, September 22, 2007
This review is from: Alaska's Kenai Peninsula Wildlife Viewing Trail Guide (Spiral-bound)
I just got back from my annual trip to Alaska where I found a copy of this guide. It is a great resource at a great price. Anyone planning a wildlife, or nature hiking vacation to the Kenai should look at getting a copy.

I have found most of these places in the last 10 years of travel, but there were some that are now on my "must see next time" list. It's not comprehensive, but it gives more than enough options to productively fill any trip from three days to 6 weeks. Locations range from the Sea Life Center to full day hikes to driving routes. All habitats on the Peninsula are covered (and all Alaskan habitats except Arctic Tundra can be found on the Kenai.) So it can lead you to all Alaskan wildlife except for Musk Ox and Polar Bears.

Nicely laid out, good descriptions, insightful tips, well illustrated, good removeable fold out map provided. Only slightly bad thing, there is no index of target species versus locations, so you need to read through descriptions to find locations for specific species. All in all, a great value and resource for the visiting naturalist.
