Alaska Flightseeing Options

When it comes to experiencing the grandeur of Alaska from above, there are several flightseeing options available. However, at McCarthy Lodge Resort, we believe one of the best ways to explore our area is through a flightseeing tour over Wrangell St. Elias National Park. 

Wrangell St. Elias National Park is a paradise for adventure enthusiasts. With its snow-covered mountains and massive glaciers, it is the perfect backdrop for flightseeing tours. This park has the highest concentration of mountains and glaciers in the world, creating a truly awe-inspiring sight.

To fully appreciate the immensity of Wrangell St. Elias National Park, a bush plane is the way to go. These small aircraft allow you to fly low and get up close and personal with the spectacular natural wonders. As you soar through the sky, you’ll witness the rugged terrain, towering peaks, and sparkling glaciers that make this park so extraordinary.

You have the following choices for Wrangell St. Elias National Park flightseeing trips:

• 35-minutes
• 60-minutes
• 70-minutes
• 90-minutes
• 120-minutes

Things to Watch for in Wrangell St. Elias National Park

During your flightseeing adventure, keep an eye out for some of the park’s most notable landmarks. The Root Glacier, in particular, is a magnificent sight to behold. As you fly over the area, you’ll notice the nose of this enormous glacier ending just adjacent to the town of Kennicott. The juxtaposition of the glacier against the surrounding mountains is a sight you won’t soon forget.

Other highlights include snow-covered landscapes, the vast expanse of untouched wilderness, and the abundant wildlife that calls this park home. Keep your camera ready, as you might have the chance to capture images of bears, moose, mountain goats, and more from the comfort of your plane.
