Denali Wilderness Hiking Tour

Sightseeing  :  United States  :  Alaska  :  Denali National Park And Preserve  :  Hiking & Camping

Hike the wilderness trails at the entrance to Denali National Park with an experienced naturalist guide on this tour. This narrated tour spends five hours hiking through boreal forest, taiga, and tundra. Geology, botany, natural and human history of Denali National park is explained in detail in the fresh air and sweeping landscape. Your adventure begins after being picked up from local hotels and taken to a trailhead chosen by an experienced guide. Your guide will chose your route based off of current weather, seasonal and animal patterns. Some trails are within the boundaries of Denali National Park, others may be just outside, or completely off trail, following the footpaths of animals through their native habitat.

While not meant to be difficult, this 4.5-hour tour is for fit travelers since you'll be walking through often unimproved terrain. The extended time gives you a chance to see the forested area near the Nenana River, the brushy but wildlife-rich sub-alpine tundra, and the gorgeous views and the highly adapted vegetation of the alpine tundra.
