Mendenhall Glacier Ice Adventure Tour

Overview

Explore Mendenhall Glacier on this exclusive adventure tour into the Alaskan Wilderness. Your expert guides will lead you on a journey across Mendenhall Lake where you will paddle together with a small group past icebergs, giant waterfalls, and wildlife. On your way to the ice, you will be surrounded by breathtaking scenery of mountain peaks nestled in the Tongass National Forest. Upon landing the canoe at a remote beach site, your guides will safely lead you on an interpretive hike around the rocky surfaces located directly in front of the glacier. Here you will discover the magnificent ice features up close. Views of specific glacial features like Ice Caves and Moulins cannot be guaranteed due to the nature of the constantly moving ice. Every tour is unique and space is limited, making this Juneau’s most exciting and sought-after adventure tour.

Two traveling couples agree that this was likely the highlight of a trip full of highlights. The opportunity to walk on the glacier is not to be missed. We were lucky with the weather, so the canoeing was not too difficult, but our guides Ryan and Grant would have made sure it was fun even in rough conditions. They were informative, funny and kind -- and most importantly, highly capable, so we felt safe and could enjoy the adventure!
