Things to Do in Valdez Alaska
Those visiting Valdez are going to want to take advantage of its stunning natural beauty as much as possible. Outside of the city are the Worthington Glacier and Thompson Pass.

In the city, Valdez’s harbor is the jumping-off point for those wanting to take to the sea.
