Why Denali National Park?
Denali is six million acres of untamed wilderness — grizzly bears, caribou, wolves, glacial rivers and the mighty Denali peak at 20,310 feet. On your days off you can hike backcountry trails, take a park bus tour, go whitewater rafting on the Nenana River, try ziplining, or simply chase the northern lights as autumn arrives. The lodge sits right beside the park entrance, so adventure is literally a few steps from your door.
