This Remote Alaskan Lodge Is The Perfect Place To See The Northern Lights
The shimmering grandeur of the Northern Lights can usually only be spotted in the most distant and freezing regions of the far north. And for those of us who don’t fancy camping in the snow or trekking miles across mountains, getting far enough away from the light pollution of northern cities to see the lights at their best can be a struggle. This luxurious Alaskan lodge is the solution.
During these uncertain times, please keep safety in mind and consider adding destinations to your bucket list to visit at a later date.
Sheldon Chalet is located in Alaska’s Denali National Park. It’s a gorgeous place, but its deepest regions can be inaccessible to most travelers due to the long hikes and car rides necessary to cross the wilderness.
This luxe chalet is perched 6,000 feet above sea level and juts out from a granite outcrop in the middle of a snowy valley – it’s definitely the most glamorous way to see the park and the northern lights, which frequently play in the skies over the chalet.
The five-bedroom, hexagonal chalet Is just 10 miles from Mount Denali and comes with a staff of expert guides and a concierge. Guests will be flown in by helicopter and greeted with champagne. They’ll then be treated to guided experiences like igloo-building, snow-cave digging, hiking, and picnicking. Guests can also expect chopper transfers, most beverages, and all the gourmet dining at the chalet to be included in their booking.
So how much does it cost to vacation here? The current rate is a cool $47,000 per night. There’s a two-night minimum stay required, but the chalet recommends you stay at least three nights, of course. If you have the spare change, there’s no better place to appreciate the Northern Lights than this remote haven in the wilderness.
