If the river is flooding, you will need to walk to the second bridge for pickup. The parking lot attendant will give you instructions. When planning your driving trip in Alaska, please remember that we do not have multi-lane highways here. It will take you longer than you might think to travel from one place to another. If you are coming to Kennicott from Fairbanks or Denali Park, you will have a much more comfortable trip if you plan to stop along the way.
Dinner is family-style, one seating.
AIR Flying to McCarthy is certainly the easiest and quickest way to get to Kennicott. It is also a spectacular flight through some of Alaska's most magnificent country. We have a 3600 foot gravel runway located between McCarthy and Kennicott. It's about a 2 hour flight from Anchorage to McCarthy, about 50 minutes from Glennallen, or 25 minutes from Chitina. There is daily air service from Chitina to McCarthy twice each day.
