Mendenhall Glacier is a scenic lookout Juneau located in United States.
Juneau Ranger District, 8510 Mendenhall Loop Road Juneau , AK 99801 United States
The waterfall & ice cave under the glacier are quite possibly the most amazing thing I have ever seen in my life. If you're physically able, a hike to the glacier and cave will change your life!
Definitely take advantage of one of the many hiking trails around the glacier. It's a great way to see it without alot of other people around - time to enjoy the clean air and quiet !
Beautiful glacier with a lot of trails . If you walk to the west (not on regular trail map) for about 7 miles, you can actually touch the glacier. For regulars, walk to the waterfall , still beautiful
Get up close and personal with a glacier: This massive, 12-mile-long ice block hangs out just northwest of Juneau. Stop by the visitor center for a breathtaking lookout. Read more
They recommend to bring a friend when hiking the trails , in case of bears . And check out the map to make sure you're going the right way ????
Spend some time reading the signs along the path. You learn tons about the nature and animals in the area.
The flight by helicopter was incredible! Take this as a must in your tour .
The water fall is a little over a mile! Walk fast or start walking early... so you don't miss the bus back!
A wonderful and amazing place , if you can, take the tour by walking in the caves .
Prepare for some crowds. The number one tourist destination in Juneau. Hike to Nugget Falls to see the glacier up close.
Easy 4 shuttles and vista is 45 mins 2 hours if u can do the nugget trail
If you get up on the glacier, make sure to taste some of the running glacier water ...amazingly cold and fresh!
The rangers said if you see a bear , either talk or sing to it to make it go away. TIL bears are introverts.
Go and enjoy. Lots of hikes and walks. Very beautiful any season.
You can go see ice caves and drink pure glacier water here. Drink the water second though. Ice caves don't have bathrooms .
The veiw and occasional mountian goat . The walk and glacier are hard to beat
If you're going to nugget falls make sure you have time to come back and catch your bus .
Takes about 15 minutes to hike down to the falls. Do it. It's great.
Speechless
Walk straight down from the visitors centre, walk left along the creek, we found ice washed up on the bank from the glacier!
Definitely take the hike out to the waterfall ! It's absolutely gorgeous!
Definitely head to the water and drink from the waterfall . It's delicious.
Very beautiful nature at its best
Walk to the point for good pictures.
The glacier is great but the waterfall is awesome!
Passed by it on a cruise . Incredible. And hoping that global warming stops being a jerk.
Great place to watch bears along the boardwalk!
Don't forget to bring gloves !! And also it gets kinda slippy on the path!
Love the hike and view !!!

Lots of trails to hike and treasures to see
Crazy how it has transformed through the years.
If you land on the glacier, grab some ice for your cooler to keep drinks cold at home.
Saw a porcupine!!
Go see it before it's gone!
???? “It used to be bigger”

Take out your camera , beautiful!!

East Glacier Trail hike is a must.
Check out the waterfall
Jump in the swimming hole! It's awesome!
