Denali - Tundra Wilderness
Tour
For
visitors wanting to know about
Denali National Park’s varied
landscapes and wildlife, this 6-8
hour fully narrated tour takes
visitors to the Toklat River at mile
54 of the Park Road. While we can't
predict nor promise when and where
wildlife may show up, this tour
travels deep into the heart of the
park and will allow you ample
opportunity to look for Dall sheep,
moose, caribou and the elusive
grizzly bear. On days when Denali
(Mt. McKinley) is visible, it may be
possible to travel to Stony Hill
Overlook at mile 62 where the
mountain first becomes fully visible
from base to summit - an impressive
view. Exact departure times are not
guaranteed and are based on
availability. Note: Weather
conditions and animal behavior
affect wildlife viewing. The tours
are operated inside the park by the
National Park Service.
|
Spend a day and travel some
60 miles into the wilderness
of Denali National Park and
the heart of bear country.
On this fully guided tour,
you’ll get interpretation
from your driver/guide,
along with 6 to 8 hours of
wildlife spotting and
spectacular scenery. If the
weather cooperates, you’ll
see Mount McKinley up close.
During the early part of the
trip, watch for moose: there
are some huge bulls that
hang out in the taiga forest
between headquarters and
Savage Campground. Look for
caribou anywhere above
treeline. But don't be
surprised if wildlife is
sparse in those early
miles—it’s not unusual to
see no animals on this
section of road, depending
on the time of day and
season.
The tip of Mount McKinley
first comes into view at
Mile 9. You'll ride over
high mountain passes and
usually see Dall sheep on
the mountainsides. If you're
lucky, you'll spot bears
too. It’s not uncommon to
see wolves from Teklanika
on.
A high point—literally and
figuratively—is the drive
over Polychrome Pass, which
offers a grand view of the
Plains of Murie, stretching
to the Alaska Range on the
horizon. The colors of the
mountains seem to change
depending on light and time
of day. Just on the other
side of Polychrome Pass is
the Toklat River and Toklat
Bridge. If clouds cover
Mount McKinley, the tour
turns around here. On a
clear day, the tour
continues. (Hint: morning
tours have the best chance
of moving on.)
Watch for bears ambling
along the tundra or
riverbeds and for Mount
McKinley, which will be in
and out of view the rest of
the trip. The bus goes over
Highway Pass and stops at
Stony Hill Overlook at Mile
62. There, Mount McKinley
looms only 36 miles away—a
perfect photo opportunity.
Then you’ll turn around and
head for home.
