How do you get to Gates of the Arctic National Park?

February 1st, 2026 by Carl D

There are no roads into Gates of the Arctic. Access is by bush plane from the village of Bettles or Coldfoot, both reached by scheduled flights from Fairbanks. Our guided trips include all flights and/or ground transport from Fairbanks. Independent visitors can arrange their own air taxi through local operators in Bettles.
