"Up Close and Beautiful" is what we should call this tour.

Tour North America's tallest peak on this 3-hour adventure from Anchorage! During the ultimate and most popular tour this company offers, you'll travel within six miles of McKinley's 20,320 ft. summit. The flying time is about one hour one-way to the south side of the mountain peak. As we fly over the vast Alaskan wilderness, marvel at Ruth Glacier, a 40-mile-long glacier that flows through the granite-walled Great Gorge, the world’s deepest trench; see where climbers summit McKinley’s massive south face; and keep an eye out for moose, bear, swans, and the occasional wolf or coyote.

Your plane will touch down on one of the many lakes in this area for a 15 to 20-minute photo stop before returning you to the cruise ship pier, airport, or your area hotel.
