What people say

"In an effort to preserve the fragile ecosystem of Denali National Park & Preserve, the National Park Service has limited access on the park road for private vehicles. To experience the best of the park, I suggest taking the Tundra Wilderness Bus Tour to explore its vast landscapes, abundant wildlife, and iconic landmarks. As you journey deep into the heart of the park aboard a bus, knowledgeable guides provide fascinating insights into the park's ecology, history, and conservation efforts, enriching your experience along the way. From spotting grizzly bears and caribou to marveling at the majestic scenery of the tundra, the tour promises a once-in-a-lifetime experience that captures the essence of this national park. Following the tour, indulge in independent exploration of Denali National Park on one or more of many hiking trails in this pristine wilderness setting. "

"Visitors can experience a diverse array of wildlife, including grizzly bears, caribou, wolves, and Dall sheep. With limited road access, the park offers a true backcountry adventure, where one can hike, camp, or take a bus tour into the heart of this untamed land, experiencing the raw beauty and solitude of Alaska's interior."
"With so many hikes to choose from, start at the visitor center to get a map of the trails and decide which one is best for you. "
