A truly unique wilderness experience in the mountains of Denali National Park

This adventure gives you the opportunity to escape your routine, with an exclusive adventure into the mountain peaks of the Alaska Range. Sheldon Chalet is perched on a nunatak within the Don Sheldon Amphitheatre, miles away from civilisation and only accessible by private helicopter.

Enjoy 5-star service from your private chef, concierge, and two adventure guides who will ensure that every aspect of your adventure is tailored to you. Each day spent at the Chalet will be a once-in-a-lifetime experience, from breakfast as the sun rises over the mountains, to evenings on the expansive deck watching for the Aurora Borealis with a glass of fine wine.

What makes this trip extraordinary?

Explore Further: Explore the mountain range by private helicopter and venture further into the mountains than most travellers ever see.

Glacier Treks: Venture onto the Ruth Glacier for an ice trek with your experienced mountain guides, exploring ice caves, snow caverns and crevasses.

Stargazing: Enjoy the clear skies, miles from any light pollution, as you watch for shooting stars and meteor showers.

Rappelling and Rock Climbing: Explore the mountains by getting up close and climbing your way to the peaks.

Aurora Borealis: Watch the Northern Lights across the mountaintops under a clear sky, as you relax around the fire pit on the open viewing deck.

Gourmet Picnics: Snowshoe your way to the original mountain house constructed in 1966 to enjoy a gourmet picnic in the snow and learn about the history of the Don Sheldon Amphitheatre.
