Alaskan Flightseeing Route: Knik & Colony Glacier

What your day looks like

Just after takeoff, you are in the heart of the Chugach Mountain Range, spotting for moose, Dall sheep, and mountain goats. After you soar over the Chugach Range, you will fly out over one of the most scenic areas in Alaska, the Knik and Colony Glacier Valleys. Flightseeing over the Knik, you will get a once-in-a-lifetime view of this gigantic glacier. Stretching 5 miles wide and 25 miles long, this azure blue glacier winds its way through the Chugach Mountain Range. Less than a mile away lies the end of another great geographic wonder, the Colony Glacier. The steep descent of the Colony and its “ice falls” make for incredible aerial photos. After a fantastic flight around the Knik and Colony glaciers, we land at the foot of the Colony Glacier in Lake George, where the Colony falls off into the lake to create icebergs, some of the size of a house. Floating with these giants, you will be able to see the beautiful blue glacier ice and be able to pose for a great picture in front of the glacier. If you are lucky, you will hear the thunderous caving of the glacier as it carves its way down the valley. After the glacier photo op, your flightseeing tour will continue as you fly low over the Knik River Valley and spot for moose and bears on the way back into Anchorage. Alaska Flightseeing with Regal Air at the Knik Glacier is sure to be the experience of a lifetime!
