Commune with nature and explore the great outdoors at Matanuska Glacier State Recreation Site during your travels in Gateway. While you're in the area, wander around the parks.

This is one of my favorite places to take kids, family, and friends when they come for a visit. It is a truly "Alaska" experience to be able to wander among and feed the Reindeer here. And the scenery on the way can't be beat! Landscape wise, Pioneer Peak is the star of the show on this trip along the Old Glenn Highway & Bodenburg Loop Road.
