Immerse yourself in the wild splendor of Alaska during the most brilliant season. Seek out rutting moose, migrating caribou, feasting bears, and wolves at play. Learn about the sometimes surprising, always extreme, conditions that shape subarctic ecosystems and define life in Denali National Park. Join experts on hikes throughout the Park. Meet the people who hold this land dear. Combine five days at the riverside campus of the Denali Education Center with three nights at North Face Lodge in Kantishna, the heart of Denali. This small family owned and operated lodge near Wonder Lake offers unparalleled views of Mt. McKinley, fine dining, guided backcountry hikes, and the opportunity to canoe, fish, or bike in the shadow of the Alaska Range. Savor the vivid fall colors, hear sandhill cranes, taste wild blueberries, and search the sky for northern lights. Let the spectacular sights, sweet smells, pure air, and extraordinary company lift your spirits and awaken your senses.
