What You Will Visit:
SkyPeak Gondola
Elevate your Icy Strait Point adventure on the state-of-the-art SkyPeak Gondola. Soar high above the treetops with undisturbed Glacier Bay views as you reach 1,500 feet above the base of Icy Strait Point to the top of Hoonah Mountain. Disembark and enjoy access to scenic nature trails, magnificent views of the icefields and Glacier Bay National Park, and the world's largest ZipRider experience.
ZipRider® Thrill Ride
A 90-second thrill ride like no other! The Icy Strait ZipRider is the longest and highest ZipRider, located 1,330 feet above sea level, higher than the Empire State Building. The ZipRider offers a spectacular thrill ride experience with magnificent views. The ZipRider boasts six cables, which means that six riders, seated in a special harness can go at the same time, so prepare for a race to the bottom! Accelerating to 60 mph, participants "fly" an incredible 300 feet above the rainforest below and land gently on the beach.
What You See Along The Way:
Views, views and more views stretch for miles as your gondola climbs to the top of Hoonah Mountain, so bring your camera to capture the vistas that extend over sparkling Glacier Bay. During your exhilarating 90-second ZipRider experience, take in sweeping views of Port Frederick, Icy Strait and your cruise ship. Keep an eye out for wildlife sightings as well!
