EXPERIENCE:
An adrenaline-packed winter adventure. Enjoy a 20-minute scenic helicopter tour as the helicopter zips you over the mountains to the astonishing Knik glacier where you’ll spend the next 1.5 hours romping through the snow-covered paradise, stopping to take pictures of anything that captures the imagination.
What goes better together than peanut butter & jelly, salt & pepper, or a pepperoni & cheese pizza? Helicopters and snowshoes of course! Its even better when dropped off just miles away from one of the most picturesque landscapes in Southcentral Alaska, the astonishing Knik glacier.
We will spin you up to just above the tree-line and head towards an alpine wonderland on a thrilling helicopter ride. All the while, take in the sights of the glamorous Knik River Valley while listening to an in-depth narrative from your world-class pilot and guide.
After reaching our destination, you will unload and strap on snowshoes. Before heading into the wild, our guide will provide tips on how to properly shoe if youve never experienced the sport. You and the guide will then spend the next 1.5 hours romping through the snow-covered paradise, stopping to take pictures of anything that captures the imagination.
After taking in all the realm has to offer, you will return to the Knik River Lodge again on an exhilarating ride, exploring the valley from new angles. Provisions include a yummy snack courtesy of our local Anchorage partner Kats Epic Trail Bites (theyre naturally gluten-free).
