Perched on a mountain ridge above the Don Sheldon Amphitheatre, Sheldon Chalet offers an incredible experience just 10 miles from the summit of Denali. At an elevation of 6,000ft (±1820 metres), the chalet offers incredible mountain views and is the perfect place to launch heli-adventures and observe the aurora borealis. In fact, the high elevations of Sheldon Chalet, combined with the crystal-clear mountain air, provide excellent aurora-viewing and stargazing conditions. Situated on a private five acre plot within Denali National Park, Sheldon Chalet is accessible by air and transportation via helicopter.
