One of the best choices for a half-day hike in the park is the Savage Alpine Trail. It is a four mile one-way hike that gains a total of 1,500 feet and provides spectacular views of Denali on clear days. The trail starts and ends on Park Road and both access points are accessible by private vehicles. You have the option of beginning the hike directly across the street from Savage River Campground or from the bridge at mile 15. There are places to park at both ends of the trail and both trail heads are designated stops for the shuttle bus. We would highly recommend starting at the campground at mile 13 because the ascent is much more gradual from this approach.

Located at Mile 15 of Denali's Park Road, this trail is a great chance to get into Denali's alpine areas. We recommend bringing extra layers as winds can pick up once you hike above treeline in Denali. While everyone's definition is different, but we consider this trail to be a strenuous hike.

About 15 miles in to the park, the Savage River is as far as people are permitted to drive in a personal vehicle. The Savage Alpine trail is a strenuous hike traveling four miles back towards the park entrance to the Savage River Campground. A free shuttle is available from there back to the parking at the trail-head.
