For a completely off-the-grid Alaskan adventure, Ultima Thule Lodge takes some beating. Hidden in the enormous Wrangell-St Elias Mountains, deep within North America's largest National Park and hundreds of miles from the nearest road, this wilderness experience truly lives up to its name.
Each of the lodge's handcrafted cabins is packed with home comforts; soft feather beds, comfortable armchairs and iron stoves. Every item is either made by hand on-site or ferried in by the same small planes that carry the lodge's visitors. With bleached moose horns on the walls, furniture draped with animal hides and covered porches offering stunning views of the Chitina River and surrounding mountains; nature is everywhere, inside and out. Just steps from your door, the inviting wood-fired sauna completes the idyll.
