Roughly translating to “the Great One” in the Athabascan language, Denali Mountain is the largest peak in North America with a staggering height of 20,310 feet. Sharing its name with 6-million preserved acres of pure wilderness including pristine lakes, alpine meadows, sweeping vistas and abundant wildlife, Denali is rightfully one of Alaska’s most popular destinations for explorers and nature lovers. Visitors can admire the mountain’s spectacular views while exploring the rugged backcountry of the park with opportunities to spot wildlife such as moose, caribou, grizzly bears, and wolves.
