Matanuska Glacier Hike with Lunch Summer & Winter

Overview

Join us for an unforgettable journey to the breathtaking Matanuska Glacier! Your adventure starts in downtown Anchorage, where you’ll board our comfortable van for a scenic two-hour drive north. Enjoy stunning Alaskan views and insightful commentary from your guide along the way.

At the glacier, our expert guides will lead you on a two-hour trek across ancient ice, showcasing its incredible features. Learn about the glacier’s history and impact on the landscape. The moderate hike requires good balance, sturdy knees, and proper footwear. We provide all necessary glacier gear, including helmets and microspikes.

After the trek, warm up with a hearty lunch at a nearby lodge with stunning glacier views. Snacks and water will be available throughout the trip.

Conclude the day with a comfortable ride back to Anchorage, with drop-off at major downtown hotels. Our passionate glacier guides rely on tips to continue providing these exceptional experiences.

We had a great time on this tour. We received a lot of useful local knowledge from our personable tour guide, who even took us to a great brewery for lunch afterwards! Fantastic, comfortable, enjoyable!!

After my time in Fairbanks, I wanted to explore Anchorage and I'm so glad I stumbled on Alaskan Sights & Bites!!! What an incredible couple of days with sightseeing, glacier hike, wilderness tour and some great food and beer along the way. Chris was knowledgeable and friendly and stopped at so many points along the way so we could take in the beauty of Alaska. Cannot wait to go back for more!!
