Geography: Glacier Bay National Park and Preserve lies approximately 50 air miles west of the capital city of Juneau and may only be reached only by boat or bush-plane.
Gustavus is a small bush community, located on a large glacial moraine created by past glacier advancements. This is the starting point for most travelers to Glacier Bay and offers visitors greater choices in planning their visit. Our airport receives visitors traveling from Haines, Skagway, Juneau and Seattle.
The bush community of Gustavus is off the beaten path and is the "Gateway to Glacier
Bay", a 20-minute
bush plane flight from Juneau (flight seeing options available) providing a birds eye
view of Glacier Bays fjords and a mountainous landscape.
Then an additional 20 minutes via locally owned taxi transportation (TLC Taxi or 1-907-697-2239) from either the Gustavus airport or the Gustavus pier/dock to Glacier Bay National Park facilities including campground, Visitor Information Service Office (Back-Country Office) and the nearby Glacier Bay Lodge.
From Bartlett Cove
(Glacier Bay
National Park public dock) it is approximately 55 mile to viewable, tidewater glaciers.
