Hiking & Camping in Anchorage

Walk on an Alaskan glacier on this day trip from Anchorage to the Matanuska Glacier. With an instructional guide and provided mountaineering equipment (crampons and a pole), you'll 'walk on water' as you hike across the ice. Check out physical features such as seracs, crevasses, and ice formations, and enjoy a view of an ice fall.

Go further and higher than most glacier treks with this Matanuska excursion. A guide helps you with the more technical features by setting up a rope and anchor system, which allows you to explore more of the glacier than by hiking alone. It's a great way to see the glacier's crevasses, seracs, ice formations, and icefall.
