Located at the eastern portion of Kenai Fjords National Park, Bear Glacier is the longest one in the national park at 13 miles long. Since it’s not a tidewater calving glacier, visitors can’t get too close to the glacier, but that’s not to say that isn’t just as gorgeous from a far. At the edge of the glacier, there is a 300 to 500-foot-deep lake that makes a beautiful sight to behold. Take in the majesty of icebergs floating around the lake or kayak through Bear Glacier Lagoon to get as close to the glacier as possible.
