When should I call to book a Lodge package?
We start taking reservations one year in advance, so as soon as you have an idea of your travel dates, please contact our Reservationists to see if your requested dates are available. Many travelers make their airline reservations first only to find that there is no lodging available anywhere in Alaska during their chosen vacation dates. It's always a good idea to research your flights, your lodging, and all other components of your Alaska trip before you commit to one portion of the trip and have to face cancellation penalties and settle for whatever is available at that time. When planning your stay at the lodge, please have 2 or 3 sets of dates in mind in case we are booked during your first choice dates. We will be happy to put your name on a "courtesy hold" for 24 hours while you research your flights or other travel plans.
What time does your bus leave the railroad depot?
All packages begin and end at the railroad depot. Please arrive at the Denali Park railroad depot at 1:00 p.m. Our private bus departs promptly from the depot at 1:30 p.m. At the end or your stay, you will return to the depot at approximately 11:30 a.m.
How do I get to the railroad depot?
There are a variety of transportation options between Anchorage or Fairbanks and the Denali Park Entrance: railroad, motorcoach or shuttle van, or personal vehicle.
Could you recommend some accommodations near the Denali Park entrance?
We operate Denali Cabins just South of the Denali National Park. Please visit our www.denali-cabins.com web site for more details.

Transportation
Can I drive my personal vehicle to Denali Backcountry Lodge?
Park Service regulations restrict private traffic on the Denali Park
Road. The lodge is located at the very end of the restricted 95-mile
road inside Denali National Park. We are firm supporters of the
restricted road and believe that by limiting the amount of traffic on
the road, there is less impact on the resident wildlife and natural
habitat in the park. You can, however, drive your personal vehicle to
the park entrance and to the railroad depot where all our lodge packages
begin.
How do I book a shuttle?
An alternative that works well for our guests traveling round-trip between Anchorage and Denali National Park, is to take the Alaska Denali Tours shuttle vehicle northbound to the Park, stay at Denali Backcountry Lodge, then return to Anchorage via the Alaska Railroad. At the end of your lodge stay, you will return to the Park Entrance in time to connect with the southbound train to Anchorage, the northbound train to Fairbanks, or one of the shuttle services. You can book your motorcoach shuttle through Alaska Denali Tours.
