South Denali Birding Tour

As the summer sun returns, millions of birds flood into Alaska from as far as Southeast Asia, New Zealand, and Antarctica. They are here to nest, and the sound of bird song fills the air. Later in the summer, baby birds are everywhere, bulking up for long journeys or longer winters. Your guide, a local expert birder, will take you to pristine habitats such as boreal forest, rivers, and lakes. You will use binoculars, a spotting scope, and your ears to search for residents and migrants including trumpeter swans, Arctic terns, spruce grouse, American dippers, boreal chickadees, loons, eagles, and thrushes. Early summer is best (May/June).
Three hours: $245 for up five persons, $49 per additional person.
Six hours:
$470 for up to five persons, $94 per additional person.

$49 per additional person.
Six hours: $470 for up to five persons,

Two sides of Denali Tour

Why take the train? Travel between Talkeetna and Denali National Park with your own chartered van and local guide. Stop along the way to see wildlife, hike a trail in Denali State Park, or photograph the continent’s highest peak. $425 for two people, plus $50 per additional person.

Snowshoe Hikes

Explore Alaska’s winter splendor with a great local guide. A little expert advice is all you need to enjoy this fun and popular winter sport. Trek through old-growth boreal forest to a spectacular viewpoint over the Alaska Range.
Look for Denali, North America’s highest peak, and hear tales of a summit climb from someone who’s actually been there. Search for stories in the snow – tracks left by the area’s abundant wildlife - and take home a healing salve made from native plants.
Includes water, hot chocolate, a delicious homemade treat, ski poles, overshoes, and snowshoes.
November-April · Three hours · Custom times · $59 per person, minimum two.
