Presentazione generale
Glacier Bay
Protected bay where glaciers, whales and mountains make up a moving landscape.
The discovery of Glacier Bay revolves around Margerie Glacier, Johns Hopkins Glacier and Bartlett Cove. The stay thus alternates between the coastline, mountain reliefs and natural areas, giving a concrete picture of the destination beyond its only best known site.
Vedi tutto
For a stay of 3 to 7 days, it is better to balance visits and travel times. Also to be anticipated: conditions to be checked according to the season. A car is usually the easiest way to connect the different sectors. Accessibility varies from site to site and deserves to be verified step by step.

Luoghi imperdibili
Una selezione per iniziare a sognare e organizzare il soggiorno — non un elenco esaustivo di tutto ciò che c’è da vedere.
Nature and panorama
Margerie Glacier
Margerie Glacier is one of the most observed ice fronts of Glacier Bay, with its blue and white walls falling directly into Tarr Inlet. From a boat, one often waits for cracks and falls of blocks in the water; the silence between two calvings makes the scene even more tense.
Nature and panorama
Johns Hopkins Glacier
Johns Hopkins Glacier takes place in a fjord surrounded by severe peaks, with often striated and compact ice. Access by boat depends on seasonal rules linked to seals that put down on the ice, which adds a very concrete dimension to the place: here, the landscape remains primarily habitat.
Nature and landscape
Bartlett Cove
Bartlett Cove is the ground entrance door of Glacier Bay, with the lodge, visitor centre, pebbles beaches and trails in the humid forest. Before excursions to glaciers, the site already sets the tone: tidal tracks, canoes, coastal birds and calm views of the protected waters of the bay.
Nature and panorama
Glacier Bay
Glacier Bay is a set of fjords, tidal glaciers, rainforests and mountains where ice has remodeled the landscape at a perceptible speed. Boat trips reveal glacial fronts, sea lions, whales, cliffs and milky waters; each day depends heavily on light, mist and animal movements.
