DESTINATION DENALI
In the heart of Alaska lies its most popular land attraction, Denali National Park and Preserve. With more than six million acres of vast, unspoiled wilderness, it’s easy to see why Denali National Park lands on many travelers’ “must-see” lists.
take bus tours, bicycle rides or long walks down the 90 mile Denali Park Road, which is closed to most vehicles after Mile-15.
As a result, Denali is still the vast wilderness that it was 20 years ago. Other favorite activities include hiking, camping, rafting, fishing, wildlife viewing and flightseeing. For winter lovers, cross-country skiing, dog mushing, snowmobiling, and
viewing the spectacular display of Northern Lights are popular activities.
WHEN TO VISIT
More than 400,000 travelers journey to Denali National Park and Preserve every year, primarily during peak season — mid-May through mid- September. However, Denali is open all year round, so if you wish to ski or view the Northern Lights, visit between November and March.
Visiting Denali National Park and its great scenic mountain is unlike anywhere else in the world. If you’re ready for an adventure of a lifetime, your local AAA Travel Agent is prepared to help you plan the perfect Alaska vacation for you and your family. Contact a AAA Travel Agent at 877-222-8283, visit AAA.com/travel or stop by your local AAA store.
THE GREAT ONE
Alaska is home to 17 of the 20 highest mountain peaks in the United States, one being Denali, formerly named Mt. McKinley, and is the tallest peak in North America. At more than 20,310 feet, Denali’s granite spires and snowy summits stand majestically against the skyline, although it is not visible from the park’s entrance or any nearby hotels or campgrounds.
INTO THE WILD
The abundance of untamed wilderness and unique wildlife make Denali one of the greatest natural places
in the world. Here, visitors have the chance to see grizzly bears, Dall sheep, moose, caribou, wolves, and foxes. Many small animals also inhabit the park, such as lynx, wood frogs, hoary marmots, arctic ground squirrels, pikas, and snowshoe hares. The park is also a bird watcher’s paradise with over 130 different species of birds including golden eagles, willows, arctic warblers, ptarmigans, and American golden plovers.
