If you’re visiting Soldotna in March, the warmer season is still a few weeks away, and many attractions are still closed for winter. However, don’t worry—there’s a way to take in the beauty of the region without sacrificing warmth or comfort. An air tour is a great way to enjoy the region, as you’re in the care of expert pilots who can point out some of the hidden gems of the area.

Soldotna offers two major air tour companies, starting with High Adventure Air. This chartered company does it all from land to air and sea. Personalized services and customized packages ensure you get exactly what you want, with wings covering more than 30,000 square miles of Alaska’s wild. Serving tourists for over 25 years, the focus is on exploring the most of the area while keeping guests cozy and secure.

High Flying

Natron Air, also known as the local “air taxi,” is another great choice. Also offering a big selection of packages available to personalize, you can take Natron to just about any part of the state. However, home base is Soldotna, and they specialize in memorable flights as well as salmon fishing trips and bear tours.

Natron is owned by a husband and wife team, the Popes, and they’re depended upon by Alaskan residents year round. Try one, or try them both! Seeing Alaska by air offers an unforgettable experience and a unique way to really take in the vast backcountry.
