Denali National Park, Alaska, United States Instead of the big bus tours, explore the park your way! Take a selfie at the park sign, explore the Denali National Park Visitor Center, tour historic buildings, venture down hiking trails, and visit the park’s own sled dogs at the Denali kennels. Traversing the the entire accessible road to the Savage River affords views of Denali (Mount McKinley) as well as frequent sightings of moose, caribou, bears, and a myriad of other critters. Expect a 40 mile round trip which allows extra time for exploring the park’s attractions.
Denali Highway, Alaska, United States Before the “new” highway between Anchorage and Fairbanks was finished in the 1970’s, the Denali Highway stretching from Paxson to Cantwell was the only way to reach Denali National Park by road. Still just a seldom-traveled gravel roadway today, it is renowned for picturesque alpine landscapes and untouched wilderness. This scenic byway was recently ranked #2 worldwide as the “Drive of a Lifetime” by National Geographic Traveler magazine. Besides the ability to view Denali (Mount McKinley) from numerous points, travelers will likely see wildlife along the route. Expect an 80 mile round trip.

The vehicle was clean and in good condition. The pickup service, vehicle summary, and service were also very good. The reason for the 4-star rating is that 4 hours is really not sufficient to adequately explore the Denali Highway. It takes most of an hour to get to the start of the highway in Cantwell. This leaves only an hour to explore the highway before turning around. I would recommend that Stampede offer a 6-hour and 8-hour option for rental. 8 hours might be too much, but 6 would be far more appropriate.
