Matanuska Glacier State Recreational Site Tours and Activities

The stay was absolutely amazing!!

Nestled mid-mountain in Girdwood, Alyeska Resort delivers jaw-dropping alpine panoramas year-round, with sweeping views of the Chugach peaks and, in winter, a snow-dusted wonderland. In the warmer months, you’re steps away from lush rainforest trails winding through towering spruce and seven glaciers nearby—perfect for hikers or casual nature strolls. Alyeska is a year-round resort that blends exhilarating mountain adventures, lush temperate rainforests, and luxurious wellness amenities. Easy to reach from Anchorage (and doable from Seward), it offers a unique Alaskan escape—steep slopes and Nordic spa days, all framed by spectacular mountain scenery.

Very welcoming place and people. Not far from the zoo ( very charming) breakfast was delicious.
