- Overview
Knik Glacier is located just 50 miles north of Anchorage, Alaska on the northern end of the Chugach Mountains. The ice field averages over 25 miles long and over 5 miles across making it one of the largest glaciers in southcentral Alaska. Knik Glacier feeds the 25 mile long Knik River which empties into the Knik Arm section of Cook Inlet. Local private and charter pilots provide passengers with a memorable flight-seeing trip from Anchorage to Lake George via Eagle River, followed by a low moose-spotting flight along the Knik River.[1]
