There are hikes back to this glacier only one hour north of anchorage.

With a little drive north, you can see something Alaska is known for. Take a fun guided tour down to the glacier front and explore the ice caves. Make sure to bring cash for gratuity, and warm clothes for the snow mobile ride out! Military discounts are available.

The entrance to the glacier is on private property, however, if you pay the admission fee, you can drive to the foot of the glacier. This is very worth doing. Please note, you must hire a guide to walk on the glacier!

It is a beautiful drive out there but a pit pricey to actually get on the ice but very worth it.

A breathtaking drive to a glacier adventure! One of the only glaciers that you can walk out on and touch up close!
