Matanuska Glacier Hiking Tours

Explore the Matanuska Glacier with professional glacier guides. Whether you want to explore the ice fall, or fly deep into the glacier and explore, let us show you the ropes. For our hiking tours, we offer Ice Fall Treks, Ice Climbing, Advanced Treks, and more. Overnight Glacier Camping offers a short trek near your base camp to get the lay of the land.

Small moments like this are part of what makes the Matanuska Glacier so memorable, from bright blue ice to frozen bubbles and changing glacier formations. See it from above with @sheepmountainair , then step onto the ice with @micaguides . If you’re looking for one of the most unique things to do near Anchorage, this is it.
Glacier season is right around the corner with @micaguides opening on May 14th. The Ice Fall Trek takes you onto the Matanuska Glacier's most dramatic terrain, the terminal ice fall. All of it guided by MICA's certified team who have been on this glacier since 1999. No experience needed. Link in bio to book.
The Matanuska Glacier boasts some of the best weather in the state of Alaska, but that doesn’t mean we don’t love the occasional cloudy day to make the blue ice pop!
Reaching views like this takes more than just effort, it takes access. @sheepmountainair makes it possible to land on remote ridgelines and glacier overlooks few ever see. The Matanuska Glacier is big. The views from above are bigger.
There’s a lot to do in the Mat-Su — if you know where to look. Glacier treks with @micaguides , flightseeing and glacier landings with @sheepmountainair , and backcountry access with @akmountaintours . Find lodging with Sheep Mountain Lodge and @alpenglowluxurycamping . All right here. All summer long.
Winter on the Matanuska Glacier means frozen corridors, textured blue walls, and ice caves that change every season. We paired Sheep Mountain Lodge for glacier access with @akmountaintours to explore deeper into the backcountry. If you want the full Matanuska experience, this is the route.
Experience the Matanuska Glacier your way: boots on with @micaguides , birds-eye with @sheepmountainair , or “we’re really doing this” with an elopement landing on the ice. If you want more than a day trip, @alpenglowluxurycamping lets you sleep on the glacier and wake up with a view.
Seeing the Matanuska Glacier from above is unreal, but standing on it hits different. From the air you get the full scale, the curves, the blue streaks, the way it fills the valley, but on the ice you feel the crunch under your boots and realize this thing is alive and moving. There are a bunch of ways to experience the Matanuska depending on what you want: guided glacier walks and ice climbing with @micaguides , overnight comfort and big views at @alpenglowluxurycamping , scenic stays and glacier flights through @sheepmountainair and @sheepmountainlodge , and backcountry access with @akmountaintours . However you do it, the best version is the one where you actually step onto the ice.
Glacier Camp is the only place in the world where you can glamp on a moving glacier—tucked between towering peaks and endless blue ice. Provided by a collaboration between @micaguides and @alpenglowluxurycamping 🏔️🏕️ with transportation provided by @sheepmountainair 🚁 An Alaska experience you won’t find anywhere else.
The best place to kick back after a long day of exploring the Mat-Su Valley. Around the @alpenglowluxurycamping fire pit 🏕️ Off grid luxury camping at the base of the Matanuska Glacier. Mountain View’s and endless adventure at your fingertips.
