Winter Ice Cave Adventure

Between December and March, glacial ice caves allow our guests to explore the rivers of ice from the inside out. This experience includes more flight time than our typical winter landings, since the ice caves lie further within the Chugach Mountain range. 

All Tours Begin in Palmer, Alaska

A beautiful 45 Minute Drive from Anchorage, Alaska

a Bucketlist Experience

Fly down the scenic Knik River Valley, with sweeping views of rugged mountains, frozen waterfalls and glaciers en route to a remote ice cave within the Chugach Mountains. After landing, your pilot-guide will lead you on an expedition to explore the toe of an Alaska glacier, and the caves carved by glacial melt. 

Accessible for just a few months each year, these unique formations offer a unique perspective of our state’s glaciers and make the perfect addition to any Alaska trip.

    “One of the best experiences of our lives.”

    “We did a glacier landing adventure, and unlike some other companies in the area (who we saw land and leave very quickly) we had a good amount of time on the ice where Chris took us on a mini hike to some of the waterfalls and pools on the glacier.

    It was truly a memorable experience and highly recommend it to everyone.”
