We provide ice spikes for you to safely hike on the ice Take pictures of the blue lakes on top of the glacier, crevasses and ice ‘sculptures’ made by wind, sunshine & time. (Summer)

We booked the tour online and it was worth every cent we spent for the trip. Our pilot, didnt get her name was excellent helicopter pilot , landed on the knik glacier after taking us around. On return she took us over some moose. Would recommend this trip to one and all

We took the Helicopter Tour with Glacier Landing out of the Lodge area, it was an hour drive from Anchorage - great time to enjoy the scenery and see the Knik Glacier from the roadside. The helicopter flight was amazing, viewing various animal life as we headed for the Knik Glacier (other glaciers were nearby as well). Then landing on the glacier, getting out and exploring the makings of a glacier, including a deep waterfall! This was great - I highly recommend this flight!! Then time to head back, the pilot made some nice turns as we followed a flowing river and we were seeing things at an angle - pretty wild!

Thank you for sharing your experience. The drive to Knik River Lodge for the departure is almost as scenic as the flight! Then to hover over the massive glacier ice field realizing how small we really are in comparison is so hard to express. We are glad you were able to join us and hope to see you again!
