Arrival and Departure Information
Denali Backcountry Lodge packages depart from and return to the Train
Depot at the Denali National Park entrance.
Guests meet at the depot at 1:00 p.m. and our private bus departs at
1:30 p.m. At the end of your stay, you will return to the depot at
approximately 11:30 a.m. This schedule allows for southbound travel from
Fairbanks by train on the day of arrival to the lodge, and for travel by
train to Anchorage on the day of departure from the lodge.
Other transportation options include shuttle van, sightseeing bus, self
drive, rental car, and chartered bush airplane. Guests traveling to the
Park entrance will need to allow ample time for construction delays,
slow traffic, and vehicle parking. Guests traveling northbound from
Anchorage by train will require a stay at the Park entrance the night
before going to the lodge.

entrance, Denali Cabins offers an excellent location, comfortable
