Matanuska Glacier Hiking Adventure from Anchorage

Departing Anchorage for a two hour tour complete with the history of Anchorage, Alaska. We will stop on our way to pickup coffee and snacks for our adventure as we head out to the Matanuska Glacier. Along the way you'll take in sites from varying mountain ranges and the scenic Matanuska River.

Once at the glacier we will meet up with the local guides who will give us glacier clamps for our shoes to help us better grip the glacier as we head out on a guided tour. The Glacier is always changing and there is a mapped out route based on what attractions are the best for that day. Often there are amazing caves and ice walls to view, touch and take pictures with.

Next we will head back to Anchorage, stopping on the way to eat lunch overlooking the Matanuska River. We will have opportunities to stop and take pictures at various scenic overlooks. We will keep an eye out for the many moose and other wildlife in the area.
