Train from Denali National Park to Anchorage via Denali Star Train

Note: For a round trip, add the Anchorage to Denali train or view all of our Alaska Railroad routes.

This daily route spans two of Alaska's five geographic regions - Southcentral and Interior Alaska. On a clear day, passengers enjoy sights of the train's namesake peak: Denali, the tallest mountain in North America which rises high above the Susitna River.

After departing Denali National Park, we'll head southbound toward Broad Pass which offers majestic views of the Alaska Range in all directions. On our journey, we'll travel into the backcountry Hurricane area; this region offers views of the snaking Indian River, the occasional remote cabin, and the expansive sight of Hurricane Gulch from the top of a 296-foot bridge. Before we reach our final destination of Anchorage, the train crosses the Knik River with the Chugach Mountains as a backdrop. Keep your cameras close because the sights will blow you away.
