About This Tour
This tour is strenuous due to climbing/hiking uphill in elevation, unimproved trails and off-trail hiking. It is designed for the more fit travelers. While still a narrated tour, the interpretive hike covers more ground, and explores the sub-alpine and alpine tundra as well as glacial topology in depth. The extra time on the ground gives the group a chance to see the forested area near the Nenana river, the brushy but wildlife rich sub-alpine tundra, and the gorgeous views and highly adapted vegetation of the taiga. Expect to cover 4-6 miles and climb up 1500-1800' in elevation. *Note, this tour often operates in areas just outside the National Park so we may explore the mountains off-trail and utilize locations that are more remote and have a wider variety of terrain to explore. We can drop you off at the train depot in time for the 12:30pm train departure.
