Why Denali National Park?
Denali is home to North America’s tallest peak (6,190 m), grizzly bears, caribou, wolves, and 24 million acres of pure wilderness. During the Alaskan summer you’ll enjoy nearly 20 hours of daylight – perfect for after-work hiking, river rafting, ATV tours, flightseeing over the glaciers, and by late season, your first glimpse of the Northern Lights.
The lodge sits just minutes from the park entrance in a lively resort community full of young seasonal workers from around the world. You’ll make friends from the USA, Europe, Asia and beyond – and share adventures you’ll be telling stories about for years.
