Matanuska Glacier Hiking Out of Anchorage

Tour Overview

Today’s Alaska glacier adventure begins with a narrated 100-mile drive north through the scenic Matanuska Susitna Valley on your way to Matanuska Glacier. Photo stops will be made along the way to capture the stunning views of this scenic valley and its surrounding mountain peaks.

Upon arrival at the glacier, meet your naturalist glacier guide and get outfitted with glacier hiking gear before heading out. Your time walking on the glacier is 2 to 3 hours.
