Tips from locals
Take a day trip to Castner glacier. The ice cave is unexpectedly captivating, exquisite and curious
If you’re looking for one of the quickest ways to explore an ice cave in Alaska then hike Castner Glacier Ice Cave Trail. This half-mile trail is found along the Richardson Highway and follows a creek that will take you to a stunning ice cave hidden around the bend.
This will be one of the coolest things you do in Alaska! Best done during the winter when the ice is good. It’s about an 1.5 mile walk up the river ice to the caves. Beautiful!
Drive down the Richardson Highway past Delta to explore the ice caves at Castner Glacier in the winter months!
