| How Long Should I Spend In Denali? |
| Of course, the length of your stay depends
on the kind of experience you want to have. Some options: |
| Typical Trip: 2 nights |
The typical itinerary for those staying at the
park entrance is to stay 2 nights. Arrive in the afternoon, with time
for an activity like rafting or flightseeing. If you have the energy,
take in a dinner theater show or dogsled demo. Then wake up early
the next morning and spend most of the day doing the park tour. On
the third day, consider an optional activity in the morning before
departing around midday. Top

| Kantishna Lodge: 3 or 4 nights |
If you don't mind leaving your car and paying a
bit more for lodging, you can get a true flavor for the park by going
to Kantishna and staying at one of the rustic lodges tucked deep inside
the park. This option requires a commitment, because of the 6 hours
it takes to bus out to Kantishna, most people go for a few nights
or more (air taxi service is also available). The lodge vans to Kantishna
leave around 1pm, so most people spend their first night at the park
entrance. But you can also catch a 7am coach from Anchorage, which
gets you to the park entrance in time to catch the 1pm van to Kantishna.

riding, or just hike around. All
