Denali train tour — the itinerary:
Featuring time in Alaska’s largest city, ample views of stunning landscapes, and a visit to Denali National Park, this journey is jam-packed. Travel by rail really is one of the best ways to view America’s biggest state. You’ll be riding the Railroad Goldstar, a luxury line that offers a multi-story viewing platform and gourmet dining, along with glass dome ceilings that will ensure you never miss a view. At the end of this first leg of your adventure, your accommodation will be at a stunning timber-framed lodge atop of Sugarloaf Mountain. Expect breathtaking panoramic vistas and fine wines — best enjoyed together on the viewing deck! After a day of exploring Denali National Park, the bush-plane flight from the park entrance will bring your Denali train tour to new heights. You’ll soar over glaciers, by the Alaskan range and past the North Face of America’s largest mountain. Other possible highlights include wildlife watching, rafting, and more. If you want to pack in a huge amount of Alaska in a short time period, this is the way to do it!
