RAFT DENALI: The Nenana River

Denali National Park is world famous for its abundant wildlife and for Mt. McKinley, at 20,320 feet, the tallest mountain in North America.  Resulting from the massive collision occurring as the Pacific Ocean plate grinds its way beneath the North American continent, Mt. McKinley dwarfs the mountains surrounding it, reigning as the crown jewel of the Alaska Range.  With numerous active glaciers pouring off its flanks, Mt. McKinley is still locked in the last ice age. Containing over six million acres, Denali National Park was set aside to preserve not only the mountain itself, but the pristine alpine terrain and abundant wildlife in the surrounding lands.

We have several rafting options available for visitors to the Denali Park area.   With over 60 miles of river to choose from, the Nenana has peacefully clam, non-whitewater sections as well as large volume Class IV whitewater.
