Into The Wilderness…

Posted on September 10, 2023March 7, 2025 by guides@akrainbow.com

Imagine waking up in a tent on the banks of a pristine river in the remote wilderness of SW Alaska. The sun is just rising, and the air is crisp and cool. You can hear the sound of the river rushing by and the occasional bird chirping in the trees.
You get up and stretch, then make your way to the riverbank. The water is crystal clear, and you can see fish swimming in the depths. You take a deep breath of the fresh air and smile. This is what you came for.
You spend the day fishing while wading or floating down the river, soaking up the scenery. The river winds its way through towering forests, at times past snow-capped mountains, and over rocky rapids. You see all sorts of wildlife, including bears, moose, and eagles.
In the evening, you make camp and dinner is prepared. After dinner, you sit around the fire and tell stories or enjoy peace and quiet. You fall asleep under the stars, listening to the sound of the river.
The next day, you wake up and do it all again. You float and fish your way down the river, explore the wilderness, and enjoy life’s simple pleasures. By the time you reach the end of your trip, you feel refreshed and rejuvenated. You have experienced the beauty of Alaska’s wilderness with Alaska Rainbow Adventures and made memories that will last a lifetime.

Here are some specific examples of what you might experience with us in SW Alaska:

See bald eagles soaring overhead.

About Us

Step into the current with Alaska Rainbow Adventures and you're stepping into the real Alaska — not the polished lodge version, not the brochure fantasy. For more than three decades, we've run rivers the way they're meant to be run: the Kanektok, Goodnews, Alagnak, Moraine, Arolik, and Togiak. Wild water. Wild fish. Country that doesn't bend for anyone.

This whole thing started with one guide, Paul Hansen, chasing the kind of days that get under your skin and stay there. A mouse‑eat in the half‑light. A bend in the river no one else will see that day. A rainbow flashing in the sun like it owns the place. Those moments hit you in the ribs and remind you why you came north. That feeling is the reason we're still out here.

Our trips are built the way Alaska demands: small groups, real wilderness, and gear that holds up when the weather decides to test you. Big tents you can stand in. Hot meals cooked beside the river. Guides who know every braid and every mood swing these waters can throw. With exclusive USFWS permits and miles of river to ourselves, every float is unhurried, unfiltered, and honest.

This isn't a vacation.
This is the real deal — take it or leave it.

It's a week where the noise drops away, the river calls the shots, and you remember what it feels like to be fully present in a place that doesn't care about your inbox or your deadlines. You don't just fish here — you feel the country in your bones.

Come see what's waiting for you!
