A 3-hour adventure of a lifetime awaits on this spectacular helicopter fly-in glacier tour in Seward, Alaska. Enjoy intimate and remote helicopter access to a secluded glacial environment for a private guided ice hiking tour. See the sights of Seward and participate in some trekking along the uneven fields in this journey. Meet your guide at a central location, then make your way to the Seward Airport. There, the helicopter trip will take you soaring over rugged mountain peaks to a remote glaciated valley. Dramatically flowing out of an isolated alpine ice field, your destination just south of Godwin glacier presents some of the most exciting glacier hiking in the state.
The helicopter lands right at the glacier where you will be outfitted with crampons, helmets and ice axes. A professional and expert guide will then instruct you on how to safely travel on the glacier before you take off to explore an ancient frozen river. Spending approximately 2 hours on the ice with your guide, you will explore the fascinating terrain and features of the glacier on this tour: moulins, crevasses, massive waterfalls and rivers of melt water on top of the ice.
This tour's difficulty is highly customizable depending on your preference. There will be a lot of terrain available for trekking, so the guides can cater to how much or how little you want to travel around on the glacier in the time available. When the helicopter returns, you have the option of a customized flight seeing tour of your choosing. Soar through huge icebergs in a glacial lagoon, fly over one North America’s largest Icefields, or explore the stark mountainous topography carved from the last ice age surrounding Seward.
