Outbound Heli Adventures

Experience the thrill you only get from a helicopter with Outbound Heli Adventures! See the Chugach Mountain Range & Knik River Valley from the air as your pilot takes you on an epic flying adventure.

On your flying adventure you will experience exceptional, unobstructed views of Knik Glacier, Colony Glacier (and a few other glaciers tucked away in the mountains) as well as other jaw dropping features of the Knik River Valley. Take flight over stunning mountain peaks, spot wildlife, towering waterfalls, dramatic glacial terrain & beauty that is unique to this piece of Alaska backcountry. Knik Glacier is not accessible by road making it the perfect peaceful adventure playground away from the crowds.

With Outbound Heli Adventures you will experience custom flight paths & landing locations. Choose your landing location or locations based on your interest and bucket list. You can choose from a high alpine landing to take in large, sweeping sights of the glaciers & rocky ridgelines, land on the shoreline of a massive glacial lake filled with giant floating icebergs, a rocky beach at the face of a dramatic ice wall or let your pilot take you to their favorite landing locations.

Once you're helicopter has landed on the glacier you will step foot on the ancient ice of the Knik Glacier & explore the glacier's surface with your pilot. Experience the many features of the glacier including majestic blue pools, swirling moulins, dramatic ice formations, & deep crevasses.

Looking for even more adventure? Try one of our guided Heli-adventures like Heli-dog sledding with Iditarod Musher Nic Petit, glacier paddleboarding, glacier ice climbing, glacier trekking, Heli-hiking, or Heli-packrafting. Or try a full day combo adventure flight and pair 2 of the above activities. All activities include a helicopter flight.

Make your adventure even more memorable by taking the ultimate polar plunge into a breath-taking blue glacier pool! This can be added to your experience at no extra cost to you. You are welcome to bring dry clothes to change into afterwards or bring a bathing suit for the plunge. Towels and yoga mat for standing are provided. If you would like to take the plunge let the team know at check-in so your pilot can plan accordingly.

Rather see it all from the air? We can do that too with our Scenic Sampler flight. Again, the flight path is based on your bucket list and interests.
