• Matanuska Glacier - Dive into the breathtaking splendor of one of Alaska’s most accessible glaciers! For those desiring a deeper experience, the Adventure Trek provides a longer, more comprehensive journey—perfect for adventure enthusiasts.

No previous experience is required, but this is among the most demanding glacier trips and necessitates a certain level of physical fitness. Participants should be comfortable hiking over 6 miles on uneven terrain, including steep inclines, to fully enjoy this trek.

During this adventure, hikers go beyond the main terminus ‘Ice Falls’ area, exploring the core of the Matanuska Glacier and its less-visited sections. Participants will traverse a frozen ancient landscape, uncovering unique features that are more challenging to reach. The Adventure Trek is highly personalized with a guide-to-client ratio of 1:4, ensuring the experience is tailored to the group’s abilities and preferences.

The Matanuska Glacier is an impressive 26-mile-long advancing valley glacier situated in the rugged Chugach Mountains, just 100 miles north of Anchorage, Alaska.
