Hiking & Camping in Anchorage

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.

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.
