If you are you looking for a relaxing scenic float with view of glaciers and icebergs, we recommend the Glacier Discovery Tour. This area is only accessible by train and begins with a breathtaking ride into the Placer River valley on the Alaska Railroad. Raft amongst the icebergs on Spencer Lake and take a leisurely float down the pristine Placer River. If your group wishes to participate in the adventure, try the Glacier Explorer Canoe Trip. You will paddle with our guides in a modern design of Haida Native Alaskan dugout canoes, getting up close and personal with the icebergs after lunch on the glacier.

Always something new to see when Spencer Glacier and the icebergs calve and take on different shapes under the summer sun 🌤️

Every day is unique here at Chugach Adventures, but there was one common answer- We’re lucky to have a team that enjoys time together both on and off the clock 🫂
