Full-Day Matanuska Glacier Small-Group Excursion

Overview

The Matanuska Glacier is the largest and most magnificent glacier in Alaska with road access. We will drive you to within about 1/2 mile of the face of the glacier, where we'll start our hike. We'll be hiking on the glacier for two to two and a half hours, and walk about 2 to 3 miles. There is little elevation change, and the hike difficulty is rated as moderate.

The glacier is about a two-hour drive from Anchorage. We will stop about half way there for a restroom break, where you will also have the opportunity to purchase coffee and whatever you'd like to have to eat while we're out. Bottled water is provided.

Levi was an amazing guide! He was very personable, very knowledgeable, and very friendly! While he did not guide us on the hike itself, I'm so glad we were able to book this tour through him! I would absolutely recommend him and any of his tours. Thank you, Levi!
