Day 5
Talkeetna
Talkeetna has a long history with mountaineering as the jumping-off point for climbers hoping to summit Mt. Denali, as such no visit is complete without a flightseeing tour to Mt. Denali with an optional Glacier landing too (included as part of itinerary). Talkeetna itself will offer some of the best views of Denali, on a good day you can view the mountain in its entirety from this funky hamlet.
