Adventure. Authenticity. Exploration. Our tours embody these three ideas. Lush forests. Exotic wildlife. Abundant wildflowers. These are all staples of Denali’s boreal forest. But why? Denali is a frozen wasteland in the winter. Why is it so spectacular during the summer? That’s one of the many questions we will answer on your guided walking and hiking tour. Take in the beauty of the National Park while you listen to the twittering birds, chattering squirrels and stop and to smell the delicate wildflowers. Later in the season, enjoy a bounty of delicious berries. Cloudberries, crowberries, lingonberries, nagoonberries, bog bilberries, and more. I’m willing to bet you’ve never heard of many of those. I can promise you is this: You will be shocked by your Denali knowledge after your tour. The benefits of delving deeper in Denali don’t stop there. So enjoy a fantastic stroll or hike through the boreal forest of Denali, learning everything there is to know about the plants and animals of the National Park.
