✨ AI-Enhanced Insights
New Stuyahok Airport (KNW/PANW) is a state-owned public-use gravel airstrip serving the remote Yup'ik village of New Stuyahok in Alaska's Dillingham Census Area. Located about one mile southwest of town near the Nushagak River, it provides essential scheduled air taxi, charter, mail, and medical access. The airport has a single gravel runway and limited passenger facilities.
💡 Local Tip
Frequent visitors bring extra supplies and a flexible schedule: the gravel runway and river weather can change quickly, and flights may be weight-limited. Confirm current runway conditions and baggage limits with your air carrier before heading to the airport.
🚖 Getting There
No road connects New Stuyahok to Alaska's highway system, so most travelers fly in from Dillingham, King Salmon, or Anchorage on small aircraft. Arrange local pickup in advance with your host or air carrier, as taxis and rental cars are not available. Local travel is by ATV, snowmachine, or boat, and weather can delay flights, so keep plans flexible.
