6Denali National Park
Yes, Denali National Park is one of Alaska’s must-see places. During the spring months though, the wildlife awakens and you’ll have a lot of chances to see caribou, Dall sheep, grizzly bears, moose, wolves, and other species. Additionally, the hiking trails are newly opened, and the views are striking since much of the snow remains on the mountain.
As your hiking provides you with stunning views of glacial rivers and massive mountain peaks, you will enjoy refreshing crisp mornings, plenty of sunshine, and a pleasant average temperature of 65 degrees Fahrenheit. The closest big city is Fairbanks. It is 120 miles away from the popular park. If you make it your home base, you will undoubtedly discover that you will have less competition in finding accommodations there as well.
