The Denali Walking Tour is for those you are a little more pressed for time, or a little more reserved in their ideas of adventure. This tour is a more laid back easy nature walk located in a scenic natural area that is a little closer in to the Denali Village, but still set apart enough to give you a sense of adventure. The trails you will be on would best be described as moderate, with some elevation gain and loss, but nothing too strenuous. There may be some shallow puddles and mud that you have to deal with during certain times of the year, so please com prepared with the right gear for the adventure. Sturdy shoes, layers for warmth, and rain gear are suggested.
The Denali Walking Tour can be adjusted to fit the needs and desires of you and your party, but generally speaking the tour covers about 3 to 4 miles of trail at a rate of about 1-mile per hour with frequent stops for rests, snacks and drinks (you must bring your own), and discussion about the flora and fauna of the area.
This tour is a great option for those who want to get out and experience the beauty of the Denali area and learn a great deal about their surroundings but are not looking for anything too difficult or strenuous. This is actually one of the most popular tours offered by Denali Backcountry Guides.

If you are looking for an educational interpretive wilderness tour that also gives you the opportunity to get your heart pumping a little more, than the Denali Wilderness Hiking Tour is something that you should consider.
This backcountry adventure takes you a little further into the wilderness areas in and around Denali National Park and provides you more time to explore and discover the richness of the area.
The hiking tour is a more strenuous adventure than the walking tour, so participants should be in pretty good physical shape and should not be afraid of more moderate to strenuous elevation gain during the adventure.
The hiking tour will give you opportunities to explore some fascinating areas in the forest along the Nenana River as well as the beauty and robust environment of the sub-alpine tundra areas which are popular hangouts for a variety of wildlife.
