Air Taxi and Scenic Tours between Kantishna and Denali Park Entrance.  This trip offers an alternate option to bus travel to and from the Kantishna Lodges.  The McKinley Park Airstrip is located directly across from the Alaska Railroad Depot.

Often travel from Anchorage or Fairbanks will not allow travelers to meet the Kantishna Lodge buses that depart early afternoon to Kantishna.  Flights can be arranged at any time to fly you into Kantishna. Choose a direct or scenic option. Prices will vary depending on our ability to match you with other travelers to get you the best price.

On your Departure day from Kantishna: Instead of an early morning, five-hour bus ride, you can enjoy your extra time at the lodge, and then depart mid-morning. Fly through the awe-inspiring Alaska Range. The optional scenic flight will take us to the North Face of Denali and over a number of the north side glaciers. We will arrive at the depot with plenty of time to make your travel connections at the park entrance. Direct flight: 35 minutes. Scenic flight: 55 minutes.

All transfers to and from the Kantishna Airport to the Lodges will be provided by us!
