The Top 8 Glacier Walk Tours in Juneau
Did you know the Juneau region is home to over 140 glaciers? Given that fact, it’s no wonder glacier walking is such a popular activity in these parts. We offer a range of Juneau glacier walk tours designed to offer you a once-in-a-lifetime experience.
Join one of the most popular tours of its kind on the Mendenhall Glacier Helicopter & Guided Hike. This adventure packs in an incredible number of thrills given its two-and-a-half-hour duration - perfect if you want to experience as much as you can of Juneau’s attractions during your shore time. Start with a helicopter ride giving you full 360-degree views over Juneau’s Icefield. Then, land on one of the region’s largest glaciers for a trek where you’ll see first hand the different elements that make up these naturally formed wonders.
Up the ante even more on the Taku Glacier Adventure by Air, Water & Ice. The Taku Glacier is particularly interesting, given it’s the only glacier in this icefield that’s advancing, rather than receding. Not only will you experience an exciting helicopter ride over Juneau’s glaciers, but you’ll also ride a high-speed airboat along the Taku River, taking in face-on views of the huge Taku Glacier. Then set foot on a still-forming section of the glacier that showcases ice falls, crevasses, and deep shafts, all glistening a vibrant bright blue.
Whichever of our Juneau glacier walk tours you choose, you’re sure to have an experience like no other!
