Day 1  Denali to Denali Backcountry Lodge  
Depart from the Denali Railroad Station in downtown Denali at midday on a simple public style bus to start your backcountry adventure. With an experienced driver/ guide, your transfer doubles as an in depth wildlife and sightseeing experience. Meander through the wilderness on a single stretch road with ever changing views of colourful vegetation, streams, glaciers and snow-capped mountains. Drawing on a wealth of knowledge, your driver will stop throughout the day upon possible sightings of grizzly bears, moose, caribou, wolves and dall sheep. Following an evening arrival, savour the warm Alaskan hospitality and settle into your cozy cedar cabin. Relax after your long, memorable journey and enjoy a delicious dinner as the chef combines an array of the freshest local and seasonal ingredients with an added Alaskan twist.

Or for those looking to relax, maybe indulge in a massage at the onsite Nest Spa and Wellness Centre. Following an enthralling day, settle down to dine in the main lodge. After dinner, join an informative talk about the national park or just switch off and relax in front of the fire and share stories of your experiences with fellow guests.
