*** Now Booking 2027! *** 

The Denali Park Road will be fully open again for the 2027 season. The lodge will be open starting June 8, 2027, and will close on September 8, 2027.  Please call for availability and transportation options to/from Denali Backcountry Lodge.

As the name implies, Denali Backcountry Lodge is situated deep within Denali's rugged backcountry. Located at the end of 92 Mile Park Road in Kantishna, it offers a complete Denali Park vacation experience and surprising comfort. Most park visitors limit their visits and stay near the developed and crowded Denali Park entrance.

Stay inside the park and experience a more adventurous take on one of the most beautiful places on Earth! Winding through the Alaska Range, deep into the heart of Denali Park, the "Park Road" offers opportunities to see Denali's famed wildlife: Grizzlies, caribou, moose, Dall sheep, wolves, and eagles. Should the weather smile upon you, you will also be able to view Denali itself, the highest mountain peak in North America (20,320 feet).

At the very end of Denali Park Road, past Wonder Lake, you'll find a unique enclave in the park known as Kantishna. This area is home to Denali Backcountry Lodge.  The Backcountry Lodge in Denali National Park offers an all-inclusive vacation package that includes your meals, most guided activities, and programs during your stay! Pan for gold, speak with a naturalist, and enjoy morning yoga, fishing, mountain biking, and more, all included with your stay.
