Remote Alaska gateway serving the Arctic Village community.

Location
Arctic Village, United States
Arctic Village Airport (ARC/PARC) is a small public-use airport located in Arctic Village, a remote Gwich'in Athabascan community in the northeastern interior of Alaska, United States. The airport sits at an elevation of approximately 2,092 feet (638 meters) above sea level and serves as the primary air access point for this isolated community. The airport features a single gravel runway and is operated by the Alaska Department of Transportation and Public Facilities. It is essential for delivering mail, cargo, and passengers to Arctic Village, which has no road connections to the rest of Alaska's highway system. Small charter and scheduled bush air services are the primary means of access for residents and visitors. Arctic Village is situated near the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge (ANWR), and the airport occasionally serves researchers, hunters, and tourists exploring the region. Flying conditions can be challenging due to extreme cold, high winds, and limited visibility common to the subarctic and arctic environment.
