Plan a trip in fall (mid-September to November).
Check here for the latest updates on closures, current road status, and changes to park operations due to the Pretty Rocks landslide.
Closed in winter? Not Denali! Winter is a great time to explore the park, whether by foot, ski, snowshoe, bike, or more!
Find out when the kennels are open, and whether or not you can expect to find Denali's furry rangers at home or in the field!
Rugged wildlife habitats can intimidate even the savviest hiker. Follow these guidelines to enjoy a fun, safe field trip.
Look for wildlife and wilderness during a bus trip in Denali. Most of the sole road is open only to buses during summer (May 20–mid-Sept.).
