The Experience

What your day looks like

Fly with the original flightseeing company in Denali for your best odds of seeing the highest mountain in North America. Soar amongst the jagged peaks of the Alaska Range on a stunning 200-mile flight through Denali National Park to get within 1/2 mile of Denali. Weather permitting, this flight will circle Denali to see every spectacular corner of this majestic mountain. From takeoff to landing, the breathtaking views will have you on the edge of your seat. The 60-70 minute flight departs from our private airstrip on the eastern edge of Denali National Park, and you'll enjoy the comfort and views from your window seat on our twin-engine plane. You'll see braided rivers, wildly colorful ridgelines, and velvety tundra-covered valleys as you climb towards pristine snow-covered peaks and tumbling icefalls en route to the Mountain. As you near Denali, you will thread between snowy alpine peaks, such as Mount Mather, Silverthorne, and Mount Huntington. You'll be flying at an optimal altitude that will give you the best perspective of the sheer size of the mountains of the Denali Massif. Our company has been operating flightseeing tours to Denali for more than 40 years, and our highly experienced pilots will use their skills and knowledge to guide you to the best views in Denali. While this flight focuses heavily on Denali and its immediate vicinity, you will also be able to experience all the striking signature features of the 6 million acres that comprise Denali National Park, including the vivid Polychrome Mountains, the Toklat river basin, and the colorful contrasts of Denali's vast geological displays as you ascend along the spine of the Alaska Range. Prepare to be humbled by this vast, utterly unique and remote Alaskan landscape that is best seen by air in order to appreciate the sheer magnitude of its beauty. Let our highly experienced and knowledgeable pilots help you discover the highlight of your Alaskan vacation. *Availability starts May 2026
