Great Alaskan Railtours

 

 

Between Anchorage and Fairbanks stands majestic Mt. McKinley. Still called Denali - the Great One - by Alaska natives and locals, Mt. McKinley is not only the tallest mountain in North America, it's also the most spectacular. The mountain is also the center point of a six-million-acre wilderness that boasts some of the most unspoiled, untamed country in the world. This 6 day/5 night itinerary includes a memorable train journey, the famous Tundra Wilderness Tour into Denali National Park, and your choice of optional adventures.
