Knik Glacier Trail

Thursday, January 4, 2024

This 22 mile long offroad trail follows the Knik River and eventually leads toward a large glacier. A large flat parking spot is available which has plenty of room for large trailers.

The area has a wide variety of terrain that ranges from open meadows, gravel areas, narrow woods trails with deep water and mud crossings. All vehicle types are permitted but the area is especially popular with the ATV and 4x4 crowd during weekends.

The area is open year-round but can get very muddy during spring thaw.

Alaska Glacier Tours

Grand Knik Tour

3 epic landings, 2 epic hours, One Epic experience

See the best there is to offer in South Central Alaska!

This is one of our staff favorites as you have time to really experience the stunning beauty of the area by combining three activities. Fly by helicopter to Lake George, awarded Natural Landmark status for its scenic beauty. As the helicopter descents you’ll realize the scale of the glacier and icebergs; everything out here is XXL size! Some of the ‘bergs’ are the size of apartment buildings and take two years to melt. You will have a half hour to explore the shores as you take in the massive size of the ice and take pictures of the lake with Colony glacier in the background. ​ For your second landing, you will fly high above to an alpine meadow where you will have a unique birds eye view of the massive Knik glacier below, with Colony and Cataract glacier across Lake George. There is a good chance we’ll see bears foraging along the hillsides during the flight. We almost always see moose and Dall sheep. ​ Finally, your grande adventure has you flying to the middle of the Knik Glacier for a third landing at the azure colored melt pools. See the deep blue ice, and learn about the life cycle of glaciers and why they are so important to human life across the globe. You will have another half hour to safely explore the glacier with your experienced pilot / guide. Don’t forget your water bottle so you can fill it up with that crystal clear glacier water! An adventure you will be telling friends and family about for years to come!
