"I've seen several glaciers from trains, buses and boats;
but nothing compares to actually standing on one!" -- Skip C., NYC, NY

Bring your family or friends for a fun day trekking on the blue ice of the glacier; explore crevasses, pools, towering ice formations and hidden lakes. Just about anyone can enjoy glacier treks with our experienced guides.

Or try out the challenging and exciting sport of ice climbing. The Matanuska is a great training ground to learn to ice climb in Alaska, in the warm comfort of summer!

"I did the ice-climbing...I didn’t expect I could do it, but I had a great day and it was an unbelievable challenge. Thanks to the ice-climbing guides Liz and Mike for this spectacular experience! It was the most exciting thing I did on my trip in Alaska." -- Esther L., The Netherlands
