Denali

Why Visit Denali With EWT Tours?

Denali National Park is six million acres of wilderness — bigger than New Hampshire — with one road running through it. The park’s signature wildlife (the “Big Five”: moose, caribou, grizzly bears, wolves, and Dall sheep) can all be spotted on the Natural History Tour or Tundra Wilderness Tour that EWT Tours travelers do as a full-day activity.

Denali (the mountain) is visible from much of the park on clear days — but only about 30% of summer days have full clarity. The locals call seeing it “joining the 30% club.” Whether you see the peak or not, the surrounding landscape (tundra, taiga, glacial rivers) is stunning.

EWT Tours’ cruisetour includes 2 nights at Denali Princess Wilderness Lodge with the full Natural History Tour into the park. Optional add-ons include flightseeing (a small plane circuit around the peak) and Husky Homestead (Iditarod sled dog kennel visit).
