Overview
As your tour begins, you will board your shuttle and enjoy a narrated trip through downtown Juneau to the Tongass National Forest.
Take in the beautiful scenery as you depart the capital of Alaska, only accessible by air or sea, and head towards the remarkable Mendenhall Glacier, which is 13 miles long from its origin on the Juneau Icefield to its terminus at Mendenhall Lake.
Your visit here will be 2 hours long, and your time at the glacier is self-guided. Enjoy the grounds as you wish, take in the views, and capture those all-important photos!
At certain times of the year, you may be lucky to see bears catching fish in the stream from an overlook point to one side of the entrance to the glacier. If you feel more adventurous and time permits, you can enjoy the easy walk, 0.8 miles each way to Nugget Falls, a beautiful waterfall, and take in the sights and, of course, more pictures.
You will have time to enjoy the Mendenhall Glacier Visitor Center, which offers information on the glacier, the surrounding landscape, and the wildlife of the region.
After spending a memorable time exploring the park at your own pace, your driver/guide returns to pick you up and continues to share stories of the area for your return transfer to your meeting point.
