Glacier View Adventures

These folks host the annual 4th of July Car Launch. Full hook up RV parking is limited. There is more space for boondocking than actual hook ups. Great pizza place too. 100 miles north of Palmer, 6 hour drive from Fairbanks.

We had the BEST time zipping with Ryan and Emma!! They took awesome pictures of us and made sure we were educated about the zip and the GLAY. Such a fun day!!! That second tower is so fast!!!

We booked the zipline at Matanuska Glacier to end our 2 week family vacation that began with several days in Vancouver, Canada, included a 7 night Alaskan cruise, and ended in Anchorage. Of all the activities and excursions we participated in during this trip (there were many), this was hands down the best thing we did! This was our first time zip lining, and I was worried my kids age 9, 11, 13, were going to chicken out. However, the guides were fantastic, and made us feel really comfortable. My kids wanted to go again once it was over! The drive is a bit far from Anchorage, but the views along the drive were incredible. We chose this zipline over another that was a shorter drive, and so glad we did. Their website was very clear on their refund and cancellation policy. We allotted a couple of extra hours in case of road construction so that we wouldn’t be late. That allowed us to hike trails nearby. The entire area is beautiful.

The guides were great -- two young female workers (Gina and Madison) and their senior (Alec), all enthusiastic and cheerful, drove us to two points for the double zipline. The first line gets you to about 20-30 mph fast while the second one gets you to 60-65 mph fast. If the wind is too much, they cancel the second zipline and refund you 50%. But luckily in our case, the wind was just about the right speed to let us take the second zipline. It was a great experience.

Such an awesome experience! Took my mom here from out of state and we both had a blast! They are friendly and very knowledgeable. We loved the beautiful views of Matanuska Glacier & Matanuska River. If you wanna go zip lining- go here!
