Northern Epics - Into the Mountain Tour- 5 hour Strenuous Mountain Hike 


When you enter the date you are interested in, the tours that are available for that date will populate.

Tour Description: 

Put on your hiking boots and prepare to go uphill! This 5-hour tour has a focus on great views, great company, and a good workout. You’ll stop along the way to learn about Denali and the unique plants and animals that call it home. Once you get above the treeline, prepare for some truly epic views of the Nenana River valley and the mountains of the Alaska Range.

 

This is a rugged Alaskan ridge hike. That means you’ll be navigating loose rocks, steep hills, and some heights. Your guide will help you navigate the terrain, but this hike is not recommended for those with mobility issues. If you’re an active person looking for incredible views that’ll leave your jaw on the floor - and enough knowledge about Denali to give a tour of your own - this strenuous hike is right for you!
