Winner Creek Gorge Trail Head (Lower Winner Creek Trail)
What people are saying
Super busy! Felt like walking through the mall there were so many people. Basically a walking path with some rolling hills... easy, quick trip to closed down hand tram. Some beautiful scenery of the creek, bridges and falls along the way. Park at lower visitor lot unless you're staying at the resort @apogeeadventure
Pretty hike, but very very busy! The hand tram is permanently closed after 2 deaths in 2019. For now this is a very short out and back hike. A bridge replacement is pending and construction has an estimated completion date of summer 2025.
I went to the tram several years ago from another route behind the Alyeska hotel. It was 2.5 miles. This route was much shorter at .8 miles! Unfortunately, the tram was closed after two men died within weeks of each other, but the view is still gorgeous!
A well maintained trail. It's a brisk hike that wasn't demanding. Great views throughout the hike. Highly recommend it
Amazing trail. The river and falls are added bonus. Lush green woods and serene environment. Felt very peaceful and relaxed. Very few people were there on the day which made it a bit scary as a bear was seen about a week ago.
