Experience Overview:
Denali Winter Sightseeing And Trail WalkDuring the winter, Denali National Park turns into a wonderland with breathtaking views, scenic photo opportunities, and untouched wilderness.
On the way, we stop in the quiet town of Nenana, home to the famous annual Ice Classic. We step out onto the frozen Tanana River to learn about the Alaskan tradition of betting on when the ice will break up each spring. Before continuing to Denali, we warm up with a coffee and fill out a ticket for a chance to win the jackpot if you guess the winning date and time.
Our expert guides take you to Mountain Vista, where we walk through the unique Denali landscape. Keeping an eye out for moose and other wildlife, we make our way to the Savage River under the mountainous skyline. On clear days, the views of Mt. Denali, the tallest mountain in North America, are stunning! Though clouds can obscure the peak, winter often brings the clearest skies. Still, the boreal snow forest, wildlife, and park history make this an unforgettable experience.
