Lake Clark National Park and Preserve is not on the road system and access is primarily by small aircraft. When weather and tides permit, the east side of the park on the Cook Inlet coast may be accessed by boat from the Kenai Peninsula.
Air Charter Services
Access to the Lake Clark region is by small aircraft and authorized air taxi services provide transportation to the park. Float planes may land on lakes throughout the area. Wheeled planes land on open beaches, gravel bars, or private airstrips in or near the park. A one to two-hour flight from Anchorage, Kenai or Homer will provide access to most points within the park and preserve.
Car
There is no road access to the park and preserve.
Public Transportation
Scheduled commercial flights between Anchorage and Iliamna, 30 miles outside the boundary, provide another means of access.
