Description

The Denali national park is a magnificent area to visit in Alaska. It is also the perfect place for ski touring, which will be the focus of this 7 day adventure. Furthermore, there is an endless list of amazing highlights to see in the park. Just a few examples are the Ruth glacier and the Tokositna glacier. There are also various forests, rivers, lakes and other natural wonders to see as well.

Regarding the possible skiing areas, that is where you will really get to see how huge the Denali national park is. There is an assortment of  different descents in the park, all with varying altitudes. But rest assured, based on your abilities, we will help you choose the right descent. And because we will be hiking for approximately 10 kilometres per day, you will definitely have the chance to find the right places to ski every day of this trip.

Our camp will be less than 40 kilometres from the great Mount Denali (6,190), formally known as Mount McKinley. Hence giving you the chance to gaze at the highest peak in North America whenever you wish.

Another advantage of staying in a campsite within the park is the unforgettable night views you will get to enjoy. Whenever you look up, you will get to admire stunning night skies that will be so full of stars you will think what you’re admiring cannot possibly be real. Thus giving you a wonderful experience during the day and night.

While it is well known for its amazing scenery, the Denali national park is also home to some truly amazing skiing. So if you want to have a great time ski touring, while having the chance to admire some of the most breathtaking landscape in the world, just send us a request.

Guide cancelled within 48 hrs and I was unable to find someone else and so far I’ve not been refunded. Put a small dent in my otherwise great trip to Revelstoke.

Guide was very experienced and very patient with us. We learned alot and he tried to fit in all the knowledge he could in one day, super awesome. A little tough going back and forth to get the trip set up hard to tell if the site is sketchy until you see reviews but all worked out. Ended up with an awesome day with an awesome guide. Overall pretty satisfied and thankful!
