Once in Denali National Park you will get once in a lifetime view of some of the world’s largest and most incredible glaciers, glacial ice falls (“waterfalls of ice”), sheer vertical cliffs. You will be immersed in 360 degrees of breathtaking scenery.

After the journey around the mountain of Denali and through the National Park we will make a water landing on Chelatna Lake. This high mountain lake is tucked scenically into the Denali foot hills. There, we will get out of the plane onto a beautiful sandy beach and stretch our legs after this epic flightseeing tour.

After taking in the fresh mountain air at Chelatna Lake we descend towards Anchorage along beautiful braided Alaskan Rivers spotting for wildlife. We will look for Moose, Grizzly Bears, Swans, and Eagles as we fly over the dense forests of the Susitna Valley. As the flightseeing tour comes to an end over the Cook Inlet, we will look for Beluga Whales as we fly into Lake Hood, the busiest seaplane base in the world.
