Denali National Park

Denali National Park

A six-million-acre wilderness area home to Mt McKinley, the highest peak in North America, as well as the Alaska Mountain Range, vast glaciers and the subarctic vegetation.

With just a single road leading 92 miles into the park, the large proportion is left to the wildlife. It is a fascinating region to explore not only for its scenery but for its history. People have been living within the park boundaries for 12,000 years. It is also a great place for viewing Alaskan wildlife, including bears, caribou and moose. . Within the preserve find a mix of forest, tundra, glaciers and mountains offering a playground to go hiking, climbing, fishing, dog-sledding and cross-country skiing.

Where to stay

Some of the wonderful places to stay that we frequently recommended.

Camp Denali £££££

  • USA
  • Wilderness

One of the first wilderness lodges in Alaska and the first in the Denali National Park, Camp Denali is the most iconic lodging in the park and the only that offers views of Mount McKinley. Lodgings are rustic but comfortable, with hand-sewn quilts made by staff, wood stoves and private outhouses. The simple log cabins are set along a ridgeline, all offering fantastic views of the surrounding scenery. All aspects are built with sustainability in mind to ensure a low impact on the landscape. Basic necessities form part of the charm of this historic lodging.

Sue Grimwood

In the late ’90s, I booked myself on an expeditionary voyage into the Antarctic Circle and was instantly hooked. Since then, I’ve returned to Antarctica a number of times and ventured deep into the Arctic – from Svalbard to the Russian and Canadian Arctic – always chasing that same sense of wonder. It’s this rare personal experience of the world’s polar extremes that I bring to every journey I plan.
