Norris Adventure: Seaplane, Paddle and Glacier Hike

Огляд

Experience 3 iconic Alaskan adventures—flightseeing, glacier hiking, and packrafting—all in just 5 hours!
This Packraft adventure begins with a scenic flight that will head towards the mouth of the Taku Inlet. After landing on the Norris Glacier fed lake, hike over the glacially carved terrain to a cove where your packraft awaits. From here, you will be outfitted in single person packrafts and introduced paddling techniques by your guides. Once you launch your packraft, your paddle to the glacier will take you past ice bergs to the Norris Glacier.
As you approach the glacier, prepare to beach your boat right on the Norris Glacier. Trade out paddles for micro-spikes and explore the moonscape-like area of the glacier all by foot and get panoramic views of Norris and Taku glaciers. Look for crevasses, glacier pools, moulins, and other incredible ice features. Upon completion of your glacier hike, paddle back to shore. Your floatplane awaits to take you back to Juneau.

We did the Fly-In Norris Glacier Hike & Packraft on June 30 - incredible 5 star experience!! We're locals and would absolutely recommend this tour to locals and vistors alike, it's a truly unique adventure. Abby, Cory, and the rest of the crew were so passionate and knowledgeable about the glaciers/landscape. The seaplane ride was about 25 minutes both ways. We landed on Norris lake and then had a 10 minute walk to where you get in the packrafts. The packraft paddle is about 15 minutes and you get out directly onto the glacier to hike around! You can tell that safety is the priority in every portion of the tour. A must do in Juneau!

Two parts to this review so sorry for the long post. First off shout out to everyone who works at above and beyond Alaska for making our experience so great. Everyone who worked here was very kind to us and was enjoyable to be around. Special shout-out to Haley who was our guide for the tour. She was everything you could want in a tour guide -knowledgeable, nice, funny, and made sure we had the best time possible. For the actual tour itself, not much to say besides don’t think just do it. The whole experience from the plane ride to rafting to hiking the glacier itself is all breathtaking. You get to explore an actual glacier and see ice caves water runoffs and crevasses on the glacier which was truly once in a lifetime experience. If I could rate this tour 100 stars I would, but even that doesn’t do it justice. P.S, Claire the dog we love you

We are absolutely thrilled to hear your feedback on our Norris trip! This tour truly is a once in a lifetime experience that is impossible to stop reminiscing on. The magic of Norris glacier is hard to describe until you get to witness it is first-hand. It would be hard to find the same elements of this tour anywhere else. P.S. We love Claire the dog too. She is a star employee here at ABAK.
