The Top 7 Glacier Walk Tours in Anchorage

As well as viewing glaciers from the air in a helicopter, or from the water on a boat, how about hiking directly on the surface of a glacier? If that idea is appealing, then an Anchorage glacier walk tour is ideal. Seeing a glacier up close is one of those experiences you’ll never forget! Your guide will be able to tell you all about the different elements of glaciers that you might not know about, and you’ll also be able to drink super fresh glacier water from one of the streams of ice melt!

The Knik Glacier Landing is one of the best value tours to get you directly onto a glacier. A spectacular helicopter journey flies you above this incredible landscape, showing you how vast Knik glacier is, and seeing some of the crevasses and ice columns from a distance. But, the most exciting part is still to come! Your pilot will land you right on top of the glacier, and you’ll take a guided hike across the surface, marveling at the bright blue ice, huge ice walls, and glacier rivers!

If you want to combine a glacier walk with another quintessential Alaskan activity, then the Anchorage Helicopter Glacier Dogsled & Lower Glacier Landing could be the tour for you. Enjoy stunning views over the ice field as you take a once-in-a-lifetime helicopter flight to Knik Glacier. Experience a guided walk on top of the glacier, soaking in the otherworldly shimmer of blue ice all around you. Then, learn how to mush sled dogs - and put it into practice if you want! - in a magical dog sled ride across the snowy terrain.
