Bethel is the regional transportation hub for the Yukon-Kuskokwim Delta and the main port on the Kuskokwim River. Bethel has 38 miles of public roads and is connected by road to several nearby villages during the summer. A 28-mile ice road along the Kuskokwim River connects the community with neighboring villages in the winter. The Bethel Airport is the third busiest in the state, with daily service to and from Anchorage and 56 surrounding villages. Bethel maintains a medium-draft port for ocean-going vessels, as well as the Bethel cargo dock, a petro port, a small boat harbor, a float plane beach and a seawall. Transportation within the community is served by taxi and a public transit system. A series of traditional trails provide access within the city and to nearby communities. Trail users walk, ride bicycles, or use ATVs during the summer and rely on snowmachines, dog teams, or cross country skis in the winter.
