Denali is the highest peak in North America, rising an impressive 20,310 feet (6,190 meters) into the sky, and surrounded by the 6 million plus acres of Denali National Park and Preserve. Meaning “the Great One” or “High One” in the Athabascan language, visiting the mountain is often a highlight of any visit to Alaska.
Northern Alaska Tour Company operates flightseeing tours to Denali year-round. During the summer (May – September), you can take an oxygen-equipped summit flight from Healy (about a 20-minute drive from the park entrance) to gain the stunning perspective of a successful mountaineer. In the winter you can travel roundtrip from Fairbanks, flying low over the Tanana Valley and into Denali National Park.
Also, if you are visiting in the winter, we offer a guided ground tour out of Fairbanks to Denali which includes a nature walk to explore the winter wonderland of the park. You can even return via the Alaska Railroad on days that it is operating.
