Alaska has amazing State and National Parks, and some places are only accessible by float plane. We provide access to the following parks:
Kachemak Bay State Park: Hiking, Kayaking and Public Use Cabins are just some highlights of “K-Bay” State Park. We drop off or pick up groups in many lakes including: China Poot/Leisure Lake, Grewingk Lake, Emerald Lake. The same rate applies for flights to Halibut Cove, Halibut Cove Lagoon, or Tutka Bay. Price: $225 per flight (up to 5 people, or 800 pounds) Public use cabins are a great way to enjoy the park and can be reserved at through the Alaska Department of Natural Resources.
Katmai National Park: We provide access to Katmai National Park on the remote Alaska Peninsula, whether for scenic flightsees, bear viewing, fly fishing, camping, rafting, climbing, skiing, or hiking. The near edge of Katmai is approximately 90 air miles from Homer, but due to the size of the park, rates for travel vary by destination.
Our most popular Katmai trip is to Brooks Camp, which lies between Nak Nek Lake and Lake Brooks on the Brooks River. Brooks Falls is the world’s most famous and photographed brown bear viewing location. Price for a daytrip to Brooks Camp: $599 per person
Lake Clark National Park: Lake Clark is the least visited National Park in the United States National Park system. Perhaps this is one of the reasons it is such a pristine wilderness. It is a great destination for bear viewing, fly fishing, camping and hiking. This park encompasses a large area, including many lakes and rivers. Rates for travel vary by destination.
A scenic Flightsee over Lake Clark National Park’s many volcanoes is spectacular and can be done in an hour and a half flight from Homer (Price: $297 per person).
Another popular trip is to Dick Proenneke’s Cabin on Twin Lakes, made famous by the documentary film Alone in the Wilderness. Proenneke built his cabin using hand tools in the late 1960s. It has been preserved as an “outdoor museum” and makes for an interesting park visit. Campsites are nearby. (Price for drop off: $1350 for up to 5 people or 800 pounds).
Kenai Fjords National Park: Kenai Fjords is just a short flight over the amazing Harding Ice Field from Homer. World-class fishing and kayaking are just a couple of the reasons to put this park on your list of places to visit. (Charter rates start as low as $360)
