Seward Scenic Flight to Bear Glacier

Excursion Overview

Adventure to the Largest Glacier In Kenai Fjords National Park

Give yourself the opportunity to view the largest glacier coming off the Harding Ice Field with this 30-minute scenic flight tour.

This is a unique Alaskan experience that should not be missed! Nestled among soaring, snow-covered peaks, the glacier rests above a remote lagoon studded with massive icebergs the size of houses.

Fly near old-growth forests, beautiful cascading waterfalls, and turquoise water surrounding a dramatic, frozen landscape carved and cut by millennia of ice advancing and retreating.
