Visit the Seward Chamber of Commerce for a list of operators that offer scenic overflights of the park. Flight seeing is one of the best ways to get a sense of the vastness of the Harding Icefield. Soaring over this expanse of ice broken only by isolated mountain peaks, or nunataks, is like traveling back to the Pleistocene.

Overflights also provide dramatic views of the Park’s glaciers, fjords and even wildlife. You may catch a glimpse of a mountain goat traversing a rocky ledge, or peer down at a Brown Bear fishing in salmon choked streams.
