Glaciers and Peaks

7 Days & 6 Nights

Alaska is home to massive glaciers calving into the sea and jagged mountain peaks piercing the sky. The Glaciers and Peaks tour starts with a six hour cruise to see some of the numerous tidewater glaciers found in Prince William Sound. Access the unspoiled wilderness and Spencer Glacier on an amazing rafting trip past the icebergs in Spencer Lake before floating the Placer river.

As you journey north to the historic town of Talkeetna, the landscape broadens as the miles of new adventures lie ahead. Rest at the Talkeetna Alaskan Lodge which proudly boasts a Grand Lobby with a 46' river rock fireplace and commanding views of Mt. McKinley. Let your eyes wander endlessly over this vast land. Continue your journey to the vast wilderness found in Denali National Park.
