Lake Clark National Park & Preserve

Getting There


By Plane
Access to the Lake Clark region is by small aircraft. Float planes may land on the many lakes throughout the area. Wheeled planes land on open beaches, gravel bars, or private airstrips in or near the park. A one to two-hour flight from Anchorage, Kenai or Homer will provide access to most points within the park and preserve.

By Car
There is no highway access to the park and preserve.

By Public Transportation
Scheduled commercial flights between Anchorage and Iliamna, 30 miles outside the boundary, provide another means of access.

Getting Around the Park
There are no roads in the park. A two and one half mile trail to Tanalian Falls and Kontrashibuna Lake is accessible from the town of Port Alsworth. The 50 mile Telaquana Trail depicted on maps is an undeveloped historic route from Lake Clark to Telaquana Lake.
