All levels of ability are welcome and accommodated, including those unable to walk.
Matanuska Glacier Adventures is proud to offer Ice Cave Tours on the unique and beautiful Matanuska Glacier. At 4 miles wide and 27-miles long the Matanuska Glacier is the largest glacier accessible by car in Alaska. A two hour drive North East of Anchorage along the Glenn highway, a Nationally designated Scenic Byway, offers breathtaking views of the Chugach and Talkeetna mountain ranges. Make it a fun and exciting day trip for the whole family!
Come spend the day exploring ancient ice, in addition to learning about the history and glaciology of the Matanuska Valley, enjoy hands on adventure while having a truly Alaskan experience. The toe rises gradually to the impressive ice falls, moulin’s, and crevasses of the glacier offering the chance to take a step back in time and view how ice shapes the land around it. We guarantee white ice on every trip.
