Juneau Four Glacier Adventure
About the Tour
Soar over the massive Juneau Icefield on Era Flightseeing’s signature tour, the Four Glacier Adventure.
Visit a landscape from another world. Experience the spectacular icefalls and rock formations of the Juneau Icefield from the air and on foot. Accessible only by air, the region around the Juneau Icefield is filled with lush forests, glassy alpine lakes, jagged mountain peaks, and awe-inspiring glaciers.
After flightseeing four different glaciers, your pilot will gently set you down on one of these ancient “rivers of ice”. Experience the otherworldly blue of glacial ice pools – up close and personal. Then it’s time for a little walk: under your pilot’s expert guidance, you’ll get a chance to try out the glacier walking boots we provide and inspect the massive, awe-inspiring landscape.
You’ll see four different glaciers on this unforgettable journey, each in a unique stage of existence: the advancing Taku Glacier, the retreating Norris Glacier, the cascading Hole-in-the-Wall Glacier, and the mysterious Dead Branch Glacier, which floats in its own melt water.
Enjoy 40 minutes of flight time and 20 minutes of exploration on the glacier during this adventure of a lifetime! (Total tour time is 2 hours.)
