Denali Backcountry Lodge With the partial closure of Denali Park Road, our all-inclusive lodge is now only accessible by helic

Summer 2022 at Denali Backcountry Lodge will be like nothing you’ve ever experienced before. With the partial closure of Denali Park Road, our all-inclusive lodge is now only accessible by helicopter, providing a limited number of guests with the rare opportunity to experience this incredible part of the world in true seclusion. Once you’ve reached the lodge — located at the historic settlement of Kantishna — you’ll be fully immersed in one of the world’s most spectacular natural landscapes where wildlife roams free. Warm hospitality, private cabins, cozy fires and seasonal cuisine ensure absolute comfort, so you focus on simply soaking up all the tranquility, adventure and awe-inspiring views Denali National Park has to offer.
