On this route, sparkling salmon streams, groves of birch and spruce co-exist in a mix of green, while a blanket of fireweed add a rosy purple to the landscape. Alaska Rail Tours allows you to fully absorb the magic of the setting and the wildlife that surrounds you. When you visit at different times of the year, you are able to experience a varied assortment of wildlife and sights. See Bull Moose in the fall, along with the rich colors that accompany autumn. Babies roam the meadows in the spring, complete with returning songbirds. Watch whales breach and trees bloom in the summer. Winter brings soft light, gentle snows and peace to the landscape.
Watch bustling cities fade into rural counties and wilderness right before your eyes with this northbound rail trip.

Dear Karen,
I want to thank you and Denali Tours for a most successful trip to Alaska. During these 10 days I am sure we saw and experienced a great deal of true Alaska at its best. To top it all the pictures we took of the peak of Mt. McKinley in the early morning sunshine with blue skies and a reflection on Wonder Lake was breathtaking....Read More
Really enjoyed the stay here, and would recommend to friends. Staff was pleasant, surroundings were outstanding and the guides/naturalists were fantastic!
