Ride the Glacier Discovery Train, visit Alaska’s wildlife, and float past icebergs near Spencer Glacier on a full-day Girdwood adventure.
See Alaska’s wildlife, ride a scenic railroad, and drift among glacier-carved icebergs on this full-day Girdwood Bears, Trains, and Icebergs Tour. The adventure pairs a guided visit to the Alaska Wildlife Conservation Center with a float near Spencer Glacier, linked by the Glacier Discovery Train.
Begin at the Girdwood Train Depot, then travel to the conservation center for an interpretive visit to the rehabilitation facility, where you can view wildlife on foot and by vehicle. After a sack lunch, return to the train for the journey toward Spencer Glacier. On the water, experienced guides row you close to icebergs as mountain and glacier views open around you. The gentle Placer River float has no big rapids, and most guests stay dry. Rubber boots and personal flotation devices are provided, with a rain poncho available on rainy days.
With wildlife, rail travel, and a relaxed river float in one outing, Girdwood Bears, Trains, and Icebergs Tour offers a memorable way to experience Alaska’s varied landscapes. Reserve your place for a day of close-up scenery and wildlife encounters.
