Visitors enjoy everything from an adventure-filled day on the glacier, to a culturally-enriching day learning about the region's history, to a backcountry or rafting adventure in the largest wilderness area in the country. Flying around the 13.2 million acre national park is our specialty. Skip the McCarthy Road and fly from Chitina or another destination in Alaska, including Anchorage, Valdez, Cordova or Denali. Plan a once-in-a-lifetime adventure with a local guiding company. Or sit back and enjoy learning about the local geology and natural beauty on a flightsee.
