Denali Getaways Train Packages

Round-trip or one-way Denali rail from Anchorage or Fairbanks

Illustration of Denali Getaways Train Packages

Alaska Railroad's Denali Getaways offer flexible rail packages to Denali National Park for one to three days of travel. Passengers board the Denali Star Train from Anchorage or Fairbanks and stay in the park with hotel shuttle service coordinating arrivals and departures at the Denali Depot. The route runs through Alaska's interior landscape of mountains and tundra. Travelers choose between Adventure Class (standard rail service) or GoldStar Service (upper-level dome-car seating) and can customize their trip as a round-trip from either gateway or a one-way journey between the two. Optional in-park excursions such as wildlife tours, ziplining, and rafting allow visitors to extend their Denali experience.
